House lawmakers taking action and president obama vowing to act alone as thousands of children are pouring into the country without their parents and with no place to go. House lawmakers approving investigation late yesterday. But critics and Senate Lawmakers say it has no chance of ever becoming law. Molly heninberg is live from washington with the rest of the story.

They stayed on the job 0 an extra day, even as the senate left town for the august recess, in order to finish an immigration bill which pretty much passed along party lines. Its a 694 million border bill that boosts security and adds Immigration Judges and detention facilities.
