Barack Obama actually said...

As we speak, there are enough Republicans and Democrats in the House to pass an immigration bill today. I would sign it into law today. And Washington would solve a problem in a bipartisan way. But for more than a year Republicans in the House of Representatives have refused to allow an up or down vote on that Senate bill or any legislation to fix our broken immigration system.

Context

Obama calls for bipartisan support to pass an immigration bill, criticizing Republicans for not allowing a vote.
