Boehner assures Republicans he won't push immigration reform
 
Quote:
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - House Speaker John Boehner on Tuesday reassured fellow Republican lawmakers that he will not push them to pass immigration reform and said he was just teasing last week when he criticized his caucus's reluctance on the issue.

Boehner held a closed-door meeting with Republican House members to cool their anger over remarks he made last Thursday at a Rotary Club luncheon in his Ohio district.

In that widely reported speech, Boehner described the attitude of other House Republicans as: "Don't make me do this."

After Tuesday's meeting in Washington to address the issue, Boehner told reporters: "You all know me. You tease the ones you love, but some people misunderstood what I have to say and some members misunderstood."

Some congressional aides and immigration reform advocates viewed Boehner's comments last week as a possible signal of a renewed drive to pass an immigration bill in the House. But Republican House members emerging from Tuesday's meeting said the speaker played down that prospect.

"He actually came out and made some really very strong statements that go against what his comments suggested. Just to reiterate: Number one, we're not going to conference on a Senate immigration bill," Representative John Fleming said.

Boehner: "You should see them, whining, crying not to make them work on immigration reform", "This should be done"

Repubes: "WTF? NOOOOO!!!"

Boehner: "LOL, just messing with you guys, fuck immigration reform"

Repubes: *Laughs all the way to Summer Recess*

Come on. Boehner is using the tactic of one step forward, one step backward.

Rep. Fleming said that the House isn't going to conference on the Senate immigration bill.

However, if Boehner does something, he's going to push 5 separate bills or so.

2) Revoke DACA and Dreamact in all states (for the feels!)
3) Blame Obama
