House GOP Still Trying to Pass an Immigration Bill

Playbook: “They scheduled a vote this week for a ‘compromise’ bill negotiated by moderates and conservatives. Late last night, they dropped an 116-page amendment to that legislation, which would expand the e-Verify program and create a new agricultural guest worker program. This bill is scheduled to get a vote Wednesday, less than two days after the massive 116-page amendment was released. A vote could slip to Thursday — a party meeting this morning will help determine that. Top aides tell us it’s still unlikely this will pass. And the Senate is going to ignore it. So, that’s that.”
