Move Underway To Salvage Pieces Of Immigration Bill

06/29/07 - Washington, D.C.

In the wake of the defeat of the immigration bill, efforts are under way to try to salvage parts of it.

Some lawmakers want the president to ask Congress for an emergency spending bill for more border enforcement activities. Farm groups are pushing for the "Ag jobs" component to legalize about one million undocumented agricultural workers.

It is considered relatively popular, as is the so-called DREAM Act.

That would create a path to legality for illegal immigrants planning to attend college or join the military. Also covered are those who came to the US with their families before turning 16.

But some lawmakers warn it will be hard to pass any of these measures by themselves. In remarks before yesterday's vote, Iowa Senator Charles Grassley said it would be hard to get anything done on immigration that isn't part of a package.

These parts will be admendments in other bills. Bush, Kennedy, McCain all snakes in the grass and will do anything to get amnesty and SPP through.

This is pathetic!! When do these morons quit?!?!? Not till we vote them all out of office?
