The 2013 immigration reform bill passed the Senate and had enough votes to pass the House.

Refusing to have a vote on this bill is the single biggest failure of the republican leadership. They gained a tactical advantage: by using immigration fear-mongering, they managed to gain additional seats in 2014, take control of the Senate, and block Obama's nomination of the Supreme Court judge. They also got Trump.
