Why didn’t either immigration bill pass in the House today?

Obviously it would’ve died in the Senate but it would’ve put the Democrats on the record.
What was the legitimate reason for not allowing it to pass in the House?

I guess that’s my question.
What was BS about them?

Because they saw what happened to Crowley, and understand if they go soft, they go home. This fall

Wouldn’t failing to get the bill out of the House be considered soft? I think so.

It failed because there was a pathway to citizenship for DACA and it would be viewed as amnesty.

Not just DACA amnesty, they had no end to chain migration, no end to the lottery. Just a typical cave to the Left for a few of trivial Right desires and some chump change for the Wall but without fixing those real problems. (crap about the work visas and immigrant workers, no means testing immigrants)

The one today failed because it gave up to much . The one last week was much better but some of the republicans in liberal states were scared to vote for it . They need to work together to get a bill to the senate. They should push a bill to senate with everything Trump ran on and give DACA recipients a path to citizenship but only after 10-15 years of working and supporting their self . It would really help in the midterms for republicans to be able to say they tried to pass a bill with giving DACA recipients citizenship if they would work for it and have no democrats vote for the bill . They need to show independent voters that democrats only care about voters and don’t mind spending our tax dollars for them .

Goodlatte said every single Republican voted for one or the other, which shoots down this explanation.
He said that a compromise should be possible that took common parts of each bill.
