Ros-Lehtinen becomes second Republican to back immigration bill. "Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fla.) on Tuesday became the second House Republican to endorse immigration reform legislation from Democrats. "It's important to keep the conversation going in trying to fix the broken immigration system. I favor any approach that will help us move the negotiations forward," the congresswoman said in a statement that was provided to The Hill by a spokesman...Rep. Jeff Denham (Calif.) became the first Republican to support Garcia's measure over the weekend." Rebecca Shabad in The Hill
