...various news outlets are reporting that President Obama is preparing to make a major immigration announcement next week.
Yeah, I love his bipartisanship here....
"The President was pleased to hear from CHC members and noted that they share the same vision, including that any legislation must include a path to earned citizenship," the administration in a statement. "The President further noted that there is no excuse for stalling or delay."
Seven members of Congress were present at the meeting, including Congressional Hispanic Caucus Chairman Ruben Hinojosa (D-Texas), Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.), Immigration Task Force Chairman Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.) and Chairman of the Democratic Caucus Xavier Becerra (D-Calif.).
How about including Rubio, someone who has ACTUALLY spent the time trying to come to a compromise.
Rubio has written a bill that is a really good compromise, but will Obama even look at it? Oh hell no.......it won't get the time of day.
Just ridiculous....there is a place to "start" and probably work quickly to a solid bill, and it won't happen.
