McCain’s true colors show more and more each day:
THE HILL – President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden will huddle with Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) Thursday at the White House to discuss the path forward on the Senate’s immigration reform plan. …Their meeting will occur in the Oval Office, the White House said.
The meeting follows a pair of gatherings with the Congressional Black Caucus and Congressional Hispanic Caucus earlier this week, during which the president and lawmakers sought to devise a path forward through the Republican-controlled House on an immigration reform bill. It also comes after a closed-door meeting held by the House GOP seeking to chart a path forward on the immigration.
At that meeting, Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and other top Republicans urged their colleagues to consider immigration reform, warning that the party could be in a weaker political position if they fail to act.
But many in the divided Republican conference continue to oppose providing a pathway to citizenship for the nation’s illegal immigrants, and say they do not trust the White House to implement border security measures demanded by GOP lawmakers.
