House to Vote on Bills That Provide Citizenship Path to Illegal Immigrants
The Democrat-controlled House of Representatives is set to vote on two immigration bills that would provide a citizenship path for illegal immigrants and legal status for immigrant farmworkers.
House Democratic Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) told reporters that the House would take up the bills on March 18 after they cleared a procedural hurdle on March 16.
Neither bill was taken up in the Senate when it had a Republican majority. With Democrats now holding narrow control of the upper chamber, they hope to be able to attract some Republican support.
