House Speaker Nancy Pelosi agreed that immigration reform should be included in the Democrats $3.5 trillion budget bill that they hope to pass without Senate Republican support using reconciliation. 'I do believe that immigration should be in reconciliation, some piece of that in the reconciliation,' Pelosi said at a press conference Friday. He said that the big budget bill being written by Democrats in Congress should tackle immigration. 'I think we should include in reconciliation the immigration proposal,' Biden told reporters as he left for Walter Reed, as first lady Jill Biden is getting a procedure done there. Biden also said he believed Democratic Sen. Kyrsten Sinema - who said Wednesday she doesn't support the $3.5 trillion budget bill - would eventually come along.
