Republicans shift gears on immigration ahead of reform debate with Obama
Rosemary Jenks, director of government relations at NumbersUSA, which advocates for tougher immigration laws, characterized Goodlatte as a "very solid, pro-enforcement" voice who picked "very solid, pro-enforcement" lawmakers to represent his Immigration subcommittee.
"There's not a chance the House will introduce or move a comprehensive bill," Jenks said Thursday in a phone interview. "Congress has tried comprehensive reform. It didn't work in 2007. It's not going to work this time around."
