Jordan hunts a border deal to unlock the House floor

House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan is negotiating with Rep. Chip Roy to craft an immigration bill that could break the GOP floor impasse by using a sanctuary-city crackdown as a base and layering Roy’s stricter border provisions atop it, signaling possible movement but with buy-in from hard-liners and moderates far from assured. The effort unfolds as leadership weighs further steps on reconciliation, while other Capitol battles over the NDAA and related amendments continue in parallel.
