GOP (Sen. Lindsey Graham) tells Obama that if you want our support on immigration reform, forget cramming down health reform using reconciliation.
From The New York Times:
President Obama said Thursday that he would proceed with an overhaul of the immigration system this year if he could attract substantial Republican support. But a leading Republican [U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina] who supports an overhaul said an immigration bill could not go forward if the president used a legislative shortcut sidestepping Republicans to pass his health care bill.
