McCarthy: No House immigration deal in '13

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (Calif.), the third-ranking House Republican, told immigration advocates on Friday the lower chamber won’t vote on immigration reform this year.

In a meeting with immigration leaders, McCarthy said there aren’t enough days left in this year’s legislative session to pursue reform legislation, according to The Associated Press.

McCarthy reportedly told the activists the House would address the immigration system next year.
Angelica Salas, the board chairwoman for the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles, said she was one of those who spoke with McCarthy.

"What he said was, there's 13 days left, it's very hard to do anything in 13 days," Salas said of McCarthy, according to the AP.

1. I heard they're thinking of cutting some of those 13 days they're supposed to be in session.

Too much work, I guess.

VOTE. THEM. OUT. No one else gets paid for doing NOTHING year after year.

2. Tea party hates "amnesty" = House won't do anything on immigration reform.

Looks like it will take another electoral "reminder" to repubs that the country is changing and they are being left behind.
