House Republicans leaders are struggling to find support for a plan addressing child migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border as some members blame Republican Sen. Ted Cruz for helping scuttle a vote on it Thursday.
Republicans met privately in the afternoon and will confer again Friday morning, said Rep. Sean Duffy of Wisconsin. Congress had intended to leave Washington Thursday for a five-week break.
"We'll have the votes tomorrow," although leaders don't have enough votes now, said Rep. Spencer Bachus of Alabama as he left the party meeting.
