Obama warns GOP not to play ‘games’ on immigration reform

In a thinly veiled threat to congressional Republicans, President Obama Tuesday warned the GOP not to obstruct a comprehensive immigration-reform bill being debated in the Senate this week.

“If you’re actually serious and sincere about fixing a broken system, this is the vehicle to do it — and now is the time to get it done,” Obama said from the East Room of the White House. “There is no good reason to play procedural games or engage in obstruction just to block the best chance we’ve had in years to address this problem.”
