Specter counters House in move to save immigration bill
When Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter stepped into the shower yesterday, it was an elusive immigration overhaul, not a slippery bar of soap, that he most hoped to keep within his grasp. The Pennsylvania Republican wanted a way to counter the House GOP's unusual post-passage hearings on the bill, which are sure to delay negotiations and give a platform to critics of the Senate's "path to citizenship" for millions of illegal immigrants. "I plan to hold some hearings of our own," he told surprised reporters in the Capitol later in the day. "I just developed the idea this morning in the shower." Specter says he will start with a field hearing July 5 in Pennsylvania, the state he shares with fellow Republican Sen. Rick Santorum, a leading foe of the bill who is in an uphill reelection bid. Specter aims to sway the public rather than directly influence his congressional critics, he said. But his announcement had the feel of a return volley. "I don't start wars, but, if I'm forced to, I'll participate," he said. The Senate version of the bill combines border security provisions with a guest-worker program and the controversial plan to grant citizenship to illegal immigrants who meet certain requirements. The measure is backed by a bipartisan set of senators who maintain that a deal can still be struck. It passed, 62-36, on May 25.
