I believe the odds of it passing will increase with the new Congress. If I'm right, that just means we'll have to fight all the harder to see that it doesn't pass! Actually, I think the right comprehensive immigration plan would be a shoe-in for passing in the U.S. Senate. It's my opinion that our real hope of halting amnesty rests in the U.S. House of Representatives.
