This plan will prioritize deporting felons over families ��� but it���s only a temporary first step.�� Congress must build on the bipartisan work in the Senate and finally pass comprehensive immigration reform.�� The people���s House has been waiting over 500 days for a vote on that bill, and the only thing standing in the way of democracy working its will is Speaker Boehner.�� As a result, the President must take this common sense step to start to fix our broken immigration system.�� I hope our Republican colleagues will work with us to allow Congress to act, instead of threatening a destructive government shut down.��? �� �� �� | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
