FILE - In this July 24, 2013 file photo, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas speaks on Capitol Hill in Washington. After Mitt Romneyâs 2012 loss, many senior Republicans concluded the party must moderate its image on issues such as immigration and reproductive rights. But some GOP lawmakers have done the opposite. They imposed new restrictions on abortion in several states. They are strongly resisting a broad immigration bill in the U.S. House. Theyâre waging a steady assault on âObamacare,â with some House and Senate Republicans vowing to shut down the government if thatâs what it takes to choke off the health care law Congress enacted in 2010.

Maria Peniche, 22, poses for a portrait inside the Eloy Detention Center in Eloy, Arizona, Monday, Aug. 5, 2013. The Homeland Security Department took the highly unusual step of tentatively approved asylum requests for nine Mexican immigrants, including Peniche, who left the U.S. and attempted to re-enter as part of a protest against U.S. deportation policies. An immigration judge will have the final say whether they can remain permanently in the United States, but such a ruling could take years. (AP Photo/Nick Oza)
