Conservatives Say No Chance for Immigration Reform

House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) “has said he is committed to advancing immigration legislation in this Congress but there is virtually no interest among GOP lawmakers to vote for the kind of sweeping bill that Democrats are seeking,” USA Today reports.

Said Rep. Raul Labrador (R-ID): “It’s not going to happen this year. After the way the president acted over the last two or three weeks where he would refuse to talk to the speaker of the House… they’re not going to get immigration reform. That’s done.”

Added Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-KS): “That would really melt down the conference.”
