House conservatives threaten to upend leadership over immigration
by Susan Ferrechio | Feb 14, 2018, 1:06 PM

House conservatives warned GOP leaders they could be ousted if they fail to put a border security-centered immigration proposal on the floor for a vote.

Members of the House Freedom Caucus said they want Republican leaders to make a serious push to help pass legislation authored by Rep. Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., that would impose new immigration restrictions and allocate funding for border security in exchange for providing legal protections to so-called Dreamers.

*Yawn*.

Wake me if they actually do what they threaten.  Until then, I'm unimpressed with all the talk.

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people.

This is nearly as funny as the Dreamers threaten to leave if they don't get a clean DACA law.   :silly:

The Freedom Caucus will threaten to do this until Ryan quits, just like Boehner.  And when that happens the FC will still not have a suitable candidate to take Ryan's place...but Ryan will.  Establishment Always Wins.
