I don‘t think they are going to have much influence at all on Congress,” said Louis
DeSipio, a professor of political science and Chicano/Latino studies at the University
of California, Irvine. … That’s because the holdup in Congress is not among members
who can be swayed one way or another, DeSipio said.
