Sen. Corker will Vote Against Immigration Cloture

Next week, the U.S. Senate will vote on closing off the debate and consider an immigration bill.

Senator Bob Corker says he will vote against bringing the bill up for a final vote.

Here is his statement on Friday:

“I plan to vote against cloture on the immigration bill, as I have already done twice during this debate. I believe a better approach would be a more modest bill that focuses on border security, employer identification, and putting systems in place that will put us in a position to actually enforce a new immigration policy.  “We have lost credibility in Washington on this issue, and I think before the American people will really ever get behind an immigration policy, they're going to have to feel that Washington is truly going to follow through on what it says, especially in terms of securing our border.”
