FILE - This Sept. 12, 2013, file photo shows women linking their arms and sitting in a circle to block the intersection outside the House of Representatives on Capitol Hill in Washington during a demonstration to protest Congress' inaction on comprehensive and inclusive immigration reform. Immigration overhaul legislation has been dormant in the House for months, but a handful of Republicans is working behind the scenes to advance it, even with the Capitol immersed in partisan brawling over spending and President Barack Obamaâs health law.
