Just to clarify the importance of HR4241

1) HR4241 is the House version of the Senate Bill S1932.
2) HR4241 does NOT have any immigration reforms.
3) It is VITAL that HR4241 passes coz if it does Not (GOD FORBID), then the corresponding Senate version is ALSO trashed and with it the immigration reforms in the S1932.
4) HENCE, even though HR4241 does NOT have immigration reforms, it HAS to pass coz else the immigration reforms in the senate bill do not pass either
5) Neither the Senate nor the house bills are being brought in for immigration. Immigration is just a VERY small part of a MUCH larger senate bill.
6) Even IF the house bill HR4241 DOES pass, there is NO guarantee that the reconciliation committee will keep the immigration reforms of the Senate version.
