Issa on Current Immigration Debate
Press Release
Issues: Immigration
It's nearly impossible to pass any immigration bill when one party categorically refuses to come to the table to talk. Yesterday, Democrats rejected a Presidential fix. Today, they rejected a permanent legislative one. At this stage House Democrats appear to be more committed to political grandstanding than they are to advancing meaningful, permanent solutions for our badly broken immigration system.
All parties agree the time to act is now, which is why I urge my colleagues to join us in crafting a solution that will address immediate needs and provide long-term solutions to our border security and legal immigration system. The House should remain in Washington until we get this urgent work done.
