House GOP Abandons Border Crisis Bill Amid Conservative Opposition
Republican, cabrones!
¡Vete pal cará!
Boehner, hijo de puta!
House Republican leaders abruptly pulled their border supplemental legislation prior to a scheduled vote on Thursday, a sign that they lacked the votes to pass it. That means members would go home for recess without acting, a situation that GOP leaders wanted to avoid.
Immigration-weary conservatives said the $659 million supplemental, and the subsequent measure to end the Obama administration's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, didn't go far enough in rebuking the president's actions.
It was a remarkable defeat for the new GOP leadership team on the day that Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA) stepped down as majority leader.
Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) announced the decision in a joint statement with his new leadership team, including McCarthy, House Majority Whip Steve Scalise (R-LA) and House Republican Conference Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA).
