Senate takes on immigration
Posted on: May 22nd, 2007“The Senate on Monday agreed to consider a bill legalizing millions of illegal immigrants after supporters won a critical test vote and then turned to face a barrage of amendments that could unravel the compromise measure.
The bill cleared its first parliamentary hurdle when the Senate voted 69-23 to begin at least two weeks of debate, giving the White House and a bipartisan coalition of senators an opening victory in their push to overhaul the nations immigration system.”
