Be an issue all the way through the midterm. >> arthel: will there be a vote next week? >> there will certainly be a vote. will it pass? it remains to be seen. republicans are working on a compromise bill among themselves. weve seen how this has turned out before. its heart to unify -- hard to unify the republican party on immigration, let alone have a bill that will pass that you need both parties. >> arthel: in san diego you have protesters out there in front of an i.c.e. facility. im asking y...
