SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – The House of Representatives is debating a controversial immigration bill already passed by the U.S. Senate, but one Utah Congressman said he doesn’t think it will pass.
Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, said Sunday the bill doesn’t have a chance of passing the House.
“There's no way I believe that the Senate bill will pass,” he said. “It's full of pork. It doesn't solve the problems. It's got amnesty in it. There’s too much in it, and I think House members will say, 'Nay. No way that bill's gonna pass.’”
FOX 13 News reached out to the lone Democrat in Utah’s Congressional delegation, Rep. Jim Matheson, for a comment on the bill, but his staff said he was busy with family activities.
