House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio)
said Thursday he doesn’t “intend” to push an immigration bill that
violates Republican “principles.”
Boehner spoke to reporters during his
regular press briefing after TheBlaze exclusively reported that 70
Republican House members are planning a political showdown
over immigration reform and a bill they say will mean amnesty for
illegal immigrants and election security for progressives and Democrats.
“My goal is always to bring bills to
the floor that have a strong Republican majority,” Boehner said.
“Immigration reform — it’s a very difficult issue, but I don’t intend to
bring an immigration reform bill to the floor that violates what I and
what members of my party — what our principles are.”
