WASHINGTON, D.C. - Senator Bob Bennett (R-Utah) offered the following statement today after the White House and Senate Republican and Democrat negotiators reached an agreement on comprehensive immigration legislation.

"It is clear that comprehensive immigration reform is needed to address the national security and economic realities currently facing our country. For the past several months, both Republicans and Democrats have worked to find common ground on critical immigration issues, and I am pleased that an agreement was reached today.
