LexisNexis Expert: Congress Unlikely to Revamp Immigration Laws in 2015-16

December 17, 2014 (1 min read)

"Stephen Yale-Loehr, a Cornell University law professor and immigration expert ... sees a deep freeze on any further progress. “If I were a betting man, I would say the chances of comprehensive immigration reform being enacted in 2015 or 2016 are almost nil.” Many Republicans would like some kind of reform to attract more Latino voters, he said, “but they run into members of their party in the House where in their own districts, immigration is not an issue. That tension in the Republican Party will make it very hard for leaders like John Boehner to get a package that can move through the House.” " - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Dec. 17, 2015.
