| WASHINGTON - It was supposed to be a relatively quiet Friday, with no votes and most senators heading back to their home states. But Sen. Jeff Sessions' office felt like a war room. The Alabama Republican was marshaling his resources from the last immigration reform battle, which he won, and ramping up for a new fight, this one over a section on farmworkers that a Senate committee added Thursday evening to the bill paying for the Iraq war. "There were no hearings on it and nobody had any idea that this was about to happen," Sessions said from his Capitol Hill office. |
