Speech #1130112812

This bill was introduced last night. It has never had a hearing. but here it is. Mr. Speaker. House Republicans are victims of their own shortsightedness. In their attempts to placate the fringe elements on the far right. especially as the November elections grow closer. House Republicans continue to refuse to bring up any kind of comprehensive immigration reform bill. Of course. the Senate passed comprehensive immigration reform overwhelmingly. and we know that the bill would pass this House if it were brought up for a vote. Mr. Speaker. this process is absurd. The bills we will consider today are cruel and cheap political stunts.
