Two weeks after his vice-presidential bid ended, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wisc.)
ran into an old friend, Rep. Luis Guitierrez (D-Ill.), and prodded him to
restart his effort at comprehensive immigration legislation. His argument
came from a religious and economic foundation.
“You’re a Catholic, I’m a Catholic, we cannot have a permanent underclass
of Americans exploited in America,” Ryan told Guitierrez, according to the
Democrat’s recollection of the November 2012 discussion.
Since then, Ryan has walked a fine line in supporting immigration
legislation that many Republican Party elder statesmen believe is essential
to revive the GOP’s chances in national campaigns, at the risk of short-
term burn in its conservative base. Yet Ryan has not become the public face
of the House’s immigration consideration.
The 43-year-old congressman, whose future remains bright enough that some
pine for a presidential bid of his own, has prodded a small group of House
negotiators searching for a bipartisan compromise. On Wednesday afternoon,
advisers expect Ryan to again play that role at a special immigration
meeting of the House Republican Conference, likely reiterating his support
for a pathway to citizenship for the estimated 11 million illegal immigrants
already here.
Wednesday’s meeting will be behind closed doors, leaving Ryan’s imprint
largely behind the scenes — just as it was eight months ago in that chance
meeting with Guitierrez in the House gym. Ryan intends to support a
bipartisan compromise but not become the lead advocate for any particular
legislative idea, according to current and former advisers. He’s not part
of the bipartisan House group on immigration, nor is he on the Judiciary
Committee currently considering legislative proposals.
Dan Senor, who advised Ryan in 2012 and remains close to the lawmaker, said
Ryan’s role will be different than that of another 40-something Republican,
Sen. Marco Rubio (Fla.), who became the highest-profile GOP supporter of
the Senate’s legislation. Rubio helped craft the legislative language in
bipartisan talks among eight senators, then aggressively sold the deal to
skeptical conservative audiences in dozens and dozens of radio and TV
appearances, sometimes several in a single day.
Senor, in a series of posts on his Twitter page Wednesday, said Ryan would
make a “full throated” case for a comprehensive bill, not through a “
million” media interviews, but by making the case directly to lawmakers.
The bill passed the Senate in late June with 68 votes, 14 of them from
Republicans, but it now faces an uphill battle in a House dominated by
conservatives from deep-red districts where citizenship for illegal
immigrants remains blasphemy.
Complicating the legislation’s passage is that it has become something of a
political orphan in the House, lacking paternal support from any high-
profile lawmaker. Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) and Majority Leader Eric
Cantor (R-Va.) have taken a hands-off approach, suggesting public embrace of
policy specifics would harm the process.
