White House blasts House on immigration


By Justin Sink
The White House on Wednesday blasted House Republicans for a vote that would block implementation of President Obama's executive orders on immigration in exchange for funding for the Department of Homeland Security.
Domestic policy adviser Cecilia Muñoz said amendments that would prohibit the government from providing deportation protection and work permits to as many as 5 million illegal immigrants were "not relevant" to funding for the department, and argued "nothing" that had been proposed by House Republicans "makes any sense from a policy perspective."
