Schumer promises immigration reform

Schumer's comments came on the heels of President Barack Obama saying America can't continue with a "broken" immigration system.


Obama has stated that he supports comprehensive immigration reform that includes an eventual path to citizenship for millions of foreigners illegally in the United States. During his presidential campaign, he promised to make the issue a "top priority" during his first year in office.


Last week, Obama said immigration reform is necessary because the current system is "not good for American workers. It's dangerous for Mexican would-be workers who are trying to cross a dangerous border. It is putting a strain on border communities … And it keeps those undocumented workers in the shadows, which means they can be exploited at the same time as they're depressing U.S. wages."



I need to go look at that Glenn Beck video again with the gas can when he poured water on Bill Schultz. I don't understand how Obama thinks that they are depressing U.S. wages, but I do have the thought in my head that he is definately against business. Newsmax.com
