Conservatives tell GOP: Look past Obama order on immigration

Published: November 19, 2014

 — As Capitol Hill prepares for battle over President Barack Obama’s planned executive order on immigration, a coalition of business and conservative leaders has a message for Republicans: Don’t lose focus.

They’ve coordinated messages in events across the country today to convince lawmakers that, regardless of what Obama does, the nation needs a congressional solution to its immigration problem.

Among the efforts today will be organized commentary in the conservative press, local news conferences and events such as one in D.C. featuring Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform, and national business leaders.
