Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell told reporters he expects a key vote on President Trump’s immigration proposal to take place Thursday.

"The President's made a comprehensive and bipartisan offer that would accomplish everything Democrats have said needs to be accomplished right now, immediately. It's a strong proposal. It's the only thing on the table.

And later this week, we'll vote on it," he said.

McConnell wouldn’t answer other questions.

Separately, GOP leadership said there will be no regular weekly leadership meetings and conference lunches this week before Thursday, when most members return for the immigration vote.
