Republicans Cave to Dem Demands, Agree to Split DHS, Immigration Legislation | TheBlaze.com

Republicans Cave to Dem Demands, Agree to Split DHS, Immigration Legislation | TheBlaze.com:

"Senate Republicans on Tuesday caved in to Democratic demands by saying they’d agree to hold separate votes on a bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security, and another bill to defund President Barack Obama’s executive action on immigration.

Republicans cast the move as the only way forward to ensure that a DHS funding bill can be passed by Congress this week. Democrats have conspired to block that bill for the last several weeks, given that it currently includes language to defund Obama’s immigration action."
