House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., is considering introducing a bill to the House in order to achieve comprehensive immigration reform, according to Politico.

Pelosi is planning on combining the immigration bill that passed in the Senate Judiciary Committee last May with a border-security bill that was drafted by the House Homeland Security Committee. The bill is expected to be introduced to coincide with a grass-roots National Day of Action scheduled for Oct. 5, Politico reports.

The Republican controlled House has done nothing with the immigration bill that passed through the Senate in June; that bill would be unlikely to win support in the House since many House Democrats object to it, according to the Washington Post.

House Democrats and some Republicans object to an expensive amendment that was attached to the immigration bill prior to it passing the Senate; the amendment introduced by Sen. John Hoeven, R-N.D., and Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., gave an immense amount of money to beef up border security, according to the Washington Post.

By using the version of the bill that passed through the Judiciary Committee Pelosi can introduce the bill without the controversial amendment. In order to address the border security concerns that most Republicans feel are an essential part of any immigration bill Pelosi plans to combine it with a border security bill that passed unanimously through the House Homeland Security Committee, according to the Washington Post.

After months neglecting the issue Democrats think that they can adequately pressure Republicans into getting an immigration bill passed using this tactic. The Democrats are expected to use Senate bills strong bipartisan support and the Homeland Security Committee's unanimous bipartisan support to leverage House Republicans into supporting the bill, according to Politico.

Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., who was one of the architects of the original Senate bill, has shown his support for what Pelosi plans on doing, according to Politico.

"[Pelosi is] proposing something closer to her ideal bill, and her intention is to keep the House moving forward, which is a good thing," Schumer told Politico.
