Dallas: Hispanic Groups Plan May 1 'Mega March'

After all reform efforts failed, North Texas Hispanic groups — calling themselves the Mega March 2010 Coalition — say with the Democrats in charge, it's time to try again.
Carlos Quintanilla is one of the activists who spoke at a Dallas City Hall news conference on Thursday. "Let’s send a message to Barack Obama, to Congress, that the time for comprehensive immigration reform is today — and not next year or the year after," he said.
There is no bill filed yet, but the broad outlines of legislation are forming in the Senate, led by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) and Sen. Charles Schumer (R-New York) that would require:
All citizens and legal immigrants to carry biometric Social Security cards for confirming identity
More border security and enforcement against employers
A temporary workers program

I read an article today that the process of picking a new Supreme Court justice this summer will push much of Obama's agenda to the side. And it included immigration reform in that list....
