Paul Ryan is a big supporter of amnesty. That’s why Democrats like Harry Reid and Luis Gutierrez support him for Speaker. The so called ‘House Freedom Caucus’ didn’t when they bent over and supported Paul Ryan. But will Ryan push. He claims he will not push amnesty with Obama in office. Good news if true, but I have a very hard time believing anything Lyin’ Ryan says.
Paul Ryan: No amnesty with Obama in office |
---|
Paul Ryan has signed off on a letter promising restless members of the House Freedom Caucus (HFC) that he won’t bring immigration-reform legislation to the House floor while President Obama remains in office. The letter, obtained exclusively by National Review, formalizes pledges that Ryan made last week in a closed-door meeting with select members of the HFC who were skeptical of his promise to maintain an “open” and “inclusive” relationship with the caucus. Specifically, it extracts Ryan’s word that he will not bring up comprehensive immigration reform “so long as Barack Obama is president” and, as speaker, Ryan will not allow any immigration bill to reach the floor for a vote unless a “majority” of GOP members support it. Alabama representative Mo Brooks wrote the letter and will enter it into the Congressional Record on Tuesday morning. He says his intention was to record the pledges Ryan made in the meeting and earn Ryan’s confirmation that the record was accurate, so he could vote for the Wisconsin Republican in good conscience come the congressional-floor election that will determine the next speaker.
Considering what we know about Paul Ryan now, you could probably wipe your ass with that letter.
