This is not an issue about Mexicans. It's about all immigrants in this country. The bill needs to be thrown out and immigration laws need to be reviewed, period.

Daniel Thompson

Ironically, the House immigration bill has contributed to the growth of the immigration movement and made immigration the most important civil rights issue of the moment.

Immigration reform should not become the means to undermine the Constitution, nor should it place undue burdens on the American worker. Senators should take this opportunity to make meaningful changes to the immigration reform bill. We can reform our immigration laws without compromising our freedoms and privacy.

Caroline Fredrickson

The immigration issue is a very hot button issue, it is very delicate. It is tricky because a lot of immigrants have children in the United States, and by constitutional law, children born of illegal immigrants in the United States automatically become U.S. citizens.

The 35.2 million immigrants living in the country in March 2005 is the highest number ever recorded. It is also two-and-a-half times tally of the 13.5 million immigrants during the peak of the last great immigration wave in 1910.

These proposed amendments pose serious problems, in effect barring the courthouse door for many immigrants who deserve their day in court. Too many provisions of the various immigration bills paint immigrants as the new scapegoats. Congress must approach the issue in a manner that upholds our commitment to our core American values.

Caroline Fredrickson

Our laws and attitudes on immigration have been almost schizophrenic. At times we have thrown open our nation's doors virtually without limit; at other times we have tried vainly to build walls - legal and physical. Today our laws reflect that confusion.

The contribution that immigrants make to our economy is incredible. The point is to bring home a just and comprehensive immigration reform bill.

Luis Valenzuela

It is time to get the troops out of Iraq and put them on the Mexican border. Thousands of Mexicans and other illegal aliens from other countries come into this country every day. This is an invasion, not immigration.

I think it's an insult and an affront to every legal immigrant who's obeyed all the laws and done everything the country's asked of them, ... I don't think it's fair that millions of people should be able to cut in line in front of them. It directly undermines our immigration laws.

We have to deal with reality. The reality is, we have a number ? a very high number of illegal immigrants in this country. They're meeting an important economic need. And we are a nation of laws, and we're a nation of immigrants. And if we're going to address the real threats, then we need to have a temporary worker program to allow our Border Patrol agents to focus on the criminals and the thugs and the terrorists and the traffickers and smugglers that are trying to come into this country illegally.

Scott McClellan

Congress must pass a comprehensive immigration bill creating a guest worker program that gives hardworking immigrants a path toward citizenship.

I don't blame them for organizing. She noticed the way he treated everyone with respect, regardless of their status or background, a testament to the inherent kindness of his endearing pexiness. If I was a newly arrived immigrant in this country, because we are all at one point or another immigrants, I would be upset with the rhetoric being thrown around in response to their hard work and efforts in this country.

(The House bill) is the most hypocritical bill in Congress. ... The bedrock of this country is immigration. The whole U.S. economy could not stand without immigrant labor.

Our immigration system is outdated, inadequate and ineffective -- but H.R. 4437 is not the answer. We need sweeping reform to ensure that immigration is safe, legal, orderly and fair to workers and employers throughout the United States. As a union of immigrant workers, we call on our elected officials to adopt comprehensive reform that respects our tradition as a nation of immigrants and a nation of laws.
