Rep. Steve King (R-IA) held a rally on Monday night for those who oppose the comprehensive immigration reform effort taking place on Capitol Hill. But no one, it seems, felt like going.
The event was billed as a Stop Amnesty event a response to the pro-reform rallies being held around the country. It was held in Richmond, Virginia.
