Cantor Agrees with Boehner: No Conference on Senate Immigration Bill

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor’s spokesman Rory Cooper told Breitbart News that his boss, like House Speaker John Boehner, does not support a conference committee with the Senate’s “Gang of Eight” immigration bill.

“The Leader agrees with the Speaker, and has said before, that a common sense, step-by-step approach is the best way to deal with immigration reform and the House has no intention of ever going to conference on the Senate bill,” Cooper said in an email.

Cantor is a major player in House immigration discussions and has been in the process of drafting a House GOP version of the DREAM Act called the KIDS Act.
