Okay, I give up. It looks like immigration reform is toast:http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/plum-line/wp/2013/07/11/the-morning-plum-house-gop-wont-cross-citizenship-rubicon/ …
@theplumlinegs What's wrong with security in place, then initial legalization, then waiting period (say, 5 yrs), then LPR/path citizenship?

@ByronYork@theplumlinegs nothing. the question is: what and who gets to define "security in place" -
@samsteinhp@ThePlumLineGS Certainly that could be worked on. Maybe not settled, but Dems will not even discuss that sequence, correct? -
@ByronYork@ThePlumLineGS no. they would argue that they've been doing the border security thing for four years now, with nothing to show. -
@samsteinhp@ThePlumLineGS Then it probably won't happen. Was clear the day Gang8 introduced plan: http://ow.ly/mRFWg -
@ByronYork@samsteinhp is there anything that can get House Rs to support citizenship under any circumstances? -
@ThePlumLineGS@byronyork@samsteinhp Only if all new immigrants and illegals pledge to become Republicans.

@ByronYork A path to citizenship is needed this year. Anything less brands the Republican Party as anti-Latino and anti-Asian.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
