Will Boehner Risk Tea Party’s Wrath?

Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) “is back in a familiar spot: between a rock and a hard place,” The Hill reports.

“The Senate appears poised to send the House a ‘clean’ bill funding the Department of Homeland Security, free of any measures attacking President Obama’s executive actions on immigration. But it’s not clear the plan could win the support of even a majority of Boehner’s conference.”

“Bringing legislation to the floor that would only pass with help from Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Democrats could significantly undermine the Speaker’s credibility with his 245-member caucus — the largest majority the GOP has had in generations.”
