House passed three immigration bills

The House spent most of the week in their Chamber dealing with legislation related to immigration. The House passed three immigration bills this week: H.4400 (Harrell) the House's comprehensive immigration reform bill; S.392 (Ritchie) the Senate's immigration reform bill, which was amended to the House -passed version of H.4400; and H.4347, a joint resolution relating to reimbursement costs for the incarceration of illegal immigrants. It is expected that immigration bills passed in the House will be received in the Senate next week.
