Senate parliamentarian rules against including immigration reform in $3.5 trillion economic billA ruling from the Senate parliamentarian makes it unlikely Democrats will be able to include immigration reform in their sweeping economic package At least somebody is doing something right Didn't the Republicans replace the parliamentarian with one that would agree with them when theirs said they couldn't do something? Because the time for clean fighting is long over. Any nefarious precedent they've set is fair game.
