Hatch will not vote for the dream act next week

Quote:

And Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), who has co-sponsored the legislation in the past, will not vote for the DREAM Act next week, in part because he doesn't believe it's appropriate to add the measure to a defense bill.
“Senator Hatch doesn’t support cynical political stunts," spokeswoman Antonia Ferrier said in a statement. "This defense bill shouldn’t be held hostage to unrelated measures that have no chance of becoming law. He believes we need to keep working to regain the American people’s trust by securing the borders."

I wasn't really counting on Vitter.

Hatch was a co-sponsor. Oh well. On to the next!

We need every single dem vote we can get. It's time for Obama to back up his claim that he can get the majority of Dems to vote for immigration reform.

We can still call and put pressure on him to change his mind.

Hatch is not a co-sponsor, besides I'm not surprised by this with all the anti-immigrant statements he's been putting out this year. He would just have come up with a different excuse if it came to the floor as a stand alone bill.
