Revived Immigration Bill Faces Tough Week
Tagged: radioPosted on: June 25th, 2007“President Bush’s hopes for passing an immigration law rested Monday on a fragile compromise rescued from near death to make another appearance on the Senate floor this week.
The president is urging lawmakers to “summon the courage,” declaring in his weekly radio address that “the status quo is unacceptable.”
The week begins with votes on a series of amendments, followed by a procedural vote that determines whether the compromise language has the 60 votes needed to keep moving toward final passage. The outcome is too close to call.”
