发帖数: 61690 | 1 House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi signaled that if a piecemeal approach on
immigration is needed to get a bill on the House floor, she will accept it
instead of a comprehensive measure.
“If the speaker wants to have a House bill, I fully support that sentiment,
” she said. “To have a bill would be desirable.”
She added, “They have the majority, let’s just move forward on something.”
She added that she hopes regardless of the final shape of a House bill, she
hopes that it includes a provision for fees for H-1B visas for high-skilled
workers to provide for American workforce training.
Asked about Pelosi’s remarks, Congressional Hispanic Caucus Chair Ruben
Hinojosa (D-Texas) said his members discussed that approach and are opposed
to piecemeal immigration bills.
“We do not accept that, those type of strategies are just to delay, delay
delay to kill it,” he said Thursday afternoon.
Pelosi wants a comprehensive bill. But she signaled that she is willing to
make concessions in order to find legislation that could be passed by the
House.
Democrats have previously objected to moving immigration reform through the
House in small pieces as opposed to a comprehensive bill since a piecemeal
method risks losing Democratic votes.
But Pelosi said she’s willing to take what Democrats can get in order to
move forward to a House-Senate conference.
“In order to have a House bill, a bill has to pass on the House floor,”
Pelosi told reporters on Thursday.
But she warned it has to be something her caucus can still support.
“If you want our votes, it has to be something that our members can support
,” she said.
