During her weekly press conference, the California Democrat implied there were ulterior reasons Republicans weren’t addressing immigration. “I think race has something to do with them not bringing up the immigration bill,” Pelosi said. “I’ve heard them say to the Irish, ‘If it was just you, it would be easy.'”
