Third House Republican Backs Democrats’ Immigration Reform Bill

On Wednesday, Rep. David Valadao (R-CA) became the third House Republican to support an immigration reform bill introduced by Democrats, helping to build momentum for a vote by the end of the congressional year. Valadao’s support follows two other House Republicans, Reps. Jeff Denham (R-CA) and Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL) both of whom said earlier this week that they would support the bill as cosponsors.

“I have been working with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to find common ground on the issue of immigration reform. Recently, I have focused my efforts on joining with like-minded Republicans in organizing and demonstrating to Republican Leadership broad support within the Party to address immigration reform in the House by the end of the year,” stated Congressman Valadao in a press release. “By supporting H.R. 15 I am strengthening my message: Addressing immigration reform in the House cannot wait. I am serious about making real progress and will remain committed to doing whatever it takes to repair our broken immigration system.”

Woohoo , if we average 1 a day from now till the legislative calander ends, we still won't have enough

hahaa!!!!! Funny.. Still no talks about immigration lawl

lol...what a joke....

Just another lame attempt to make voters think they care. LMFAO. These people are beyond ridiculous. The best politicians in the world reside in the United States for sure. Thugs in suits.

Wait they have been working since the start of last year ?

At this point in time, they're worse than the sleeping Mexican stereotype



"Oh wait, that's not a Mexican, that's a congressman"

lol....

"One a day keeps CIR away"

I'm sure a few more Republicans from liberal states will crawl out from under their rock to show "support" knowing full well it won't pass.

Each one helps but I really think CIR will pass in November.
