IMMIGRATION REFORM LAWS PASSES SENATE (429 hits)

JUNE 2013
27TH DAY
Washington, DC

Reform laws passed Senate caused many to a drawing a breath of ease. The newest laws allows much more relief to immigrations to become United States citizens as well as allowing some families room to unite together. As the vote handed down from the Senate 14 Republicans and joined in agreement against in a 68 pro to 34 whom opposed to pass the current bill. Although the bill has faced with troubling agreement, this latest action created history since it faces the biggest change since 1986. President Obama praised the Senate for passing the bipartisan bill, but also indicated that the bill will need the same support from the House. The President stated that no one really wins, but this is merely a compromise but rather it was a commonsense measure for reform.

There are basic components to the reformed bill which includes:

* Unauthorized immigrants to get temporary legal status after passing a background check and increasing opportunities to apply for a green-card after 10 years.

* Expansion of Federal E-Verify Program requiring business owners to check status before new hires of immigrants who have shown to be living in the states within a four year period, in addition allowing some to finger printed.

* Revamp legal immigration to increase temporary work visas for classes of immigrants trained in Science, Tech, Engineering and Math.

President Obama has urged that the House pass the bill, however there is still some opposition of costs, and some Republicans are still against the current reform being stern enough to control borders and keep track of many immigrants who will adhere to the reform laws which may also increase costly government control and deportation costs.

"There's much going on with reform
We'll watch"

But the bigger question is, "will it pass the House?" Hmmm.

I think that it (Immigration Reform) should be passed in chunks rather than throwing out the baby with the bath water. On the parts of the legislation that the House doesn't agree, table it with the understanding that it will come up for a vote in 'XYZ' number of months for which it is understood that it has to have a majority of House votes after being carefully revised for both sides to make a compromise.
