I would expect that the House will forcefully advocate for those provisions. I would say its prospects look fairly good.

There is a lot of new information in there, and members will no doubt want to follow up on it.

It's disappointing to hear from some (states) that it's inconvenient or too difficult to implement.

It is 100 percent baseless and false. These provisions were requested by border-based U.S. attorneys to help crack down on human smugglers.

We're looking into the issue. No final decision has been made on whether having hearings is an appropriate action.

If we had a conference report, we would have filed it. Until everything is agreed upon, nothing is agreed upon.
