"Paul Ryan, speaking for the House, says passage ain’t gonna happen this session. Ryan has already promised not to compromise or go to committee with the Senate version of the bill.

Republicans want a permanent immigrant sub-class of mostly non-voters to do the laundry, mow the yard and have no say whatsoever in how the country is run. I mean they’re already suppressing one minority and denying voting citizenship, why not go for two?"
