Legislative Alert: Boehner Rules out Action on Immigration Reform in 2013 and IACP Endorses Several Important Legislative Proposals
U.S. House of Representative’s (House) Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) has ruled out any action in the House on immigration reform in 2013. This means the House will not consider the Senate-passed immigration reform bill (S. 744) or the House Democrat’s immigration reform bill (H.R. 15).
Speaker Boehner’s announcement came as no surprise, as he had repeatedly stated that he would not vote on any immigration overhaul bill or a conference report unless it had the support of the majority of the Republican Conference.
