The White House deferred questions to the DOJ.

Nancy Pelosi made a comment on the need to utilize the current laws instead of passing a new AWB. While many believe this to be a sign that it won't come to fruition, it is more likely a way to side step the issue while things aren't goign so well. Besides she is probably thinking that they can do most of this via executive order without a need for a vote that would put the democrats (and their legislative power) in jeopardy.
