That's why we need ordsprog
 We want to go beyond what we read in the paper about what is happening on The Hill. We all agree America's immigration policy needs work and we are urging our congressmen to take a bold, active leadership role to work toward immigration reform. |
Pat Williams (1941-)
| The next few days could be a productive cooling off period, when senators work out their differences and commit to getting something done on immigration reform, but we will see. We hope that they will come back to Washington committed to reform, because we need it this year. |
| I am excited about what happened. For us, just getting all the organizations coming together, to send a national message that we want a comprehensive immigration reform. |
| 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. |
| A lot of people here are saying we're doing to this to send a message to Washington. That's not the right way to handle it. You don't pass legislation and put stuff in the Virginia Code to send a message to Washington. |
| Everyone recognizes that the only purpose of that (driver's licenses for immigrants) provision is to send a powerful message that it is the official policy of the state not to recognize, enforce or respect our nation's immigration law. |
| We just want to send a clear message to our Congress and Senate that they really have to rework the immigration system because it's broken. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| Our immigration system is outdated, inadequate and ineffective -- but H.R. 4437 is not the answer.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. |
| This poll is significant because it takes the temperature of those closest to the current immigration debate. The survey results are striking and reinforce the call for responsible immigration reform worthy of a nation built by immigrants. |
| They need these 11 million immigrants to work. So how about if we just line up the law that will protect them, and will empower them to continue to work in America? |
