发帖数: 61690 | 1 One of the Senate’s strongest opponents to the chamber’s sweeping
immigration reform bill acknowledged Sunday that the legislation will likely
pass this week with as many as 70 votes.
Utah Sen. Mike Lee, among the most conservative Senate Republicans, told “
Fox News Sunday” the bill is “likely to pass along those margins.”
Still, Lee remains steadfast, ahead of a likely vote Monday night or Tuesday
, that passing the roughly 1,200-page bill is a mistake. He continues to
argue that Congress should take a more step-by-step approach, starting with
further securing the U.S.-Mexico border.
“It could take years to implement the border-security measures,” Lee said.
The group of senators who crafted the legislation is trying to get 70 votes
to show the bill has widespread bipartisan support in the Democrat-
controlled chamber and to give it momentum as it heads into the Republican-
controlled House with a more uncertain future.
On Thursday, the Senate passed a so-called Border Surge amendment, which
included 70,000 additional U.S. border agents and 700 more miles of border
fencing, to garner support from lawmakers who said the influx of illegal
immigrants remains a problem.
