The House's Gang of Eight, now down to just seven members, still hasn't come up with its version of an immigration reform proposal.

It's been almost four months since the U.S. Senate's Gang of Eight released its immigration bill. However, the House's version of the group, now down to just seven members, still hasn't come up with its version of an immigration reform proposal.

One of the members of that group is Los Angeles Democrat, Congressman Xavier Becerra, chairman of the House Democratic Caucus who represents California's 34th District, which includes most of Los Angeles.
