House GOP plans to hold another conference in morning on border Source says "almost every mbr said stay..it was pretty hot."

Original Post --
House leadership has pulled a border security bill from the floor, which means it will not receive a vote before Congress goes on their August recess tomorrow. The bill was pulled due to a lack of support and the necessary vote threshold could not be met.

Boehner says nothing about pulling bill and what's next as he walks to chamber.
