The Senate has already acted, and I'm extremely disappointed that Speaker Boehner is bending to a minority of House Republicans and blocking a vote on commonsense, comprehensive immigration reform, which I believe would pass the House tomorrow. Yarmuth was part of the House Gang of 8, a group of four Republicans and four Democrats that worked last year to craft a comprehensive immigration reform bill that would keep families together and provide certainty for businesses, boost our economy and reduce the deficit, and promote humane enforcement while keeping our borders secure. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
