One week into his second term, President Barack Obama unveiled his vision for
immigration reform in a speech on Tuesday afternoon in Las Vegas, Nev., telling
Congress that he will send them his own bill and call for a vote if they don't
move first.
"If Congress is unable to move forward in a timely fashion I will send up a
bill based on my proposal and insist that they vote on it right away," Obama
said to applause from students at Del Sol High School.
"It looks like there's a genuine desire to get this done soon, and that's very
encouraging," Obama said, mentioning a blueprint put forward by a bipartisan
group of senators on Monday. "But this time action must follow."
Obama said any comprehensive immigration bill must give most of the nation's 11
million illegal immigrants a chance to earn their citizenship gradually if they
pay a fine, learn English and pass a background check. Immigrants would also
have to get to "the back of the line," which means people who have already
applied for green cards would have to have their applications processed first.
"It won't be a quick process, but it will be a fair process," Obama said. The
president's bill would also include a employment verification system, more
border security, and a revamping of the legal immigration system to provide
more visas for top graduates of U.S. universities and to reduce lengthy wait
times for visas for relatives of U.S. citizens.
Such a bill may even be in reach as a demographically challenged Republican
Party seeks to win over Hispanic voters. Conservative talk-show host Rush
Limbaugh commented on his show Monday
<http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/_ylt=Aj0YlpEmSSInN8KirZ5gG1TNt.d_;_ylu=X3oDMTFka3BkYnE0BG1pdANCbG9nIEJvZHkEcG9zAzEEc2VjA01lZGlhQmxvZ0JvZHlBc3NlbWJseQ--;_ylg=X3oDMTNxNnNpcmk4BGludGwDdXMEbGFuZwNlbi11cwRwc3RhaWQDY2M3YjQ5MDUtN2RkOC0zZmQ0LWFmYzgtNWMzNDljZjhmY2RlBHBzdGNhdANwb2xpdGljc3xjb25ncmVzcwRwdANzdG9yeXBhZ2UEdGVzdANpYl9zaG9ydF9yZWxhdGVk;_ylv=0/SIG=1322epkg7/EXP=1360700492/**http%3A/www.rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2013/01/28/fear_rules_the_gop_on_immigration>
that "I don't think there's any Republican opposition to this of any majority
consequence or size."
The president said he recognized that immigration is an issue that inflames
"passions," but he called on Americans to remember that we are a nation of
immigrants. "It's easy sometimes for the discussion to take on a feeling of
'us' versus 'them.'" Obama said. "When that happens a lot of folks forget that
most of us used to be them." Welcoming immigrants has made the country
stronger, he said. "That's how we will ensure this century is the same as the
last, an American century, welcoming everybody who aspires to do something
more, is willing to work hard for it, is willing to pledge allegiance to our
flag."
Obama mentioned a blueprint for reform released by a bipartisan group of
senators on Monday, saying its principles "are very much in line with the
principles I’ve proposed and campaigned on for the last few years," but not
going so far as to endorse it.
The senators pre-empted Obama's speech by a day and released a blueprint that
differs from Obama's earlier immigration proposal
<http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/_ylt=AuNGDQc2XmYCwjeZebyVi.XNt.d_;_ylu=X3oDMTFkZWgzYnZwBG1pdANCbG9nIEJvZHkEcG9zAzIEc2VjA01lZGlhQmxvZ0JvZHlBc3NlbWJseQ--;_ylg=X3oDMTNxNnNpcmk4BGludGwDdXMEbGFuZwNlbi11cwRwc3RhaWQDY2M3YjQ5MDUtN2RkOC0zZmQ0LWFmYzgtNWMzNDljZjhmY2RlBHBzdGNhdANwb2xpdGljc3xjb25ncmVzcwRwdANzdG9yeXBhZ2UEdGVzdANpYl9zaG9ydF9yZWxhdGVk;_ylv=0/SIG=136h6un5k/EXP=1360700492/**http%3A/www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/rss_viewer/immigration_blueprint.pdf>
in some respects. Both Obama and the senators agree that the nation's illegal
immigrants should be given a chance to legalize and eventually become citizens
if they meet certain conditions, but the senators' bill includes a spate of
border security requirements that must go into effect before the immigrants are
eligible for green cards. Sen. Marco Rubio, a Republican from Florida and a
leader in the Senate's reform efforts, said on Tuesday that he will not sign
onto a bill that does not include these border enforcement triggers

. Sen. Jeff Flake of Arizona, one of the other four Republicans in the Senate
working group, said on Monday that Obama should not try to take credit for
their proposa
<http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/_ylt=Apecch3s3w6EXdW9NmrZqrPNt.d_;_ylu=X3oDMTFkMmFzbGIwBG1pdANCbG9nIEJvZHkEcG9zAzQEc2VjA01lZGlhQmxvZ0JvZHlBc3NlbWJseQ--;_ylg=X3oDMTNxNnNpcmk4BGludGwDdXMEbGFuZwNlbi11cwRwc3RhaWQDY2M3YjQ5MDUtN2RkOC0zZmQ0LWFmYzgtNWMzNDljZjhmY2RlBHBzdGNhdANwb2xpdGljc3xjb25ncmVzcwRwdANzdG9yeXBhZ2UEdGVzdANpYl9zaG9ydF9yZWxhdGVk;_ylv=0/SIG=141db4nrt/EXP=1360700492/**http%3A/thehill.com/video/senate/279829-sen-flake-obama-speech-could-poison-the-well-with-a-lot-of-republicans>
l or it will "poison the well" for Republicans.
Another potential difference between the plans is that the president believes
same-sex partners should be able to sponsor their immigrant husband or wife for
citizenship in the same way heterosexual married couples can do now. The Senate
proposal does not mention same-sex couples.
"The president has long believed that Americans with same-sex partners from
other countries should not be faced with the painful choice between staying
with the person they love or staying in the country they love," White House
press secretary Jay Carney said on Tuesday.
Leaders in the Republican-controlled House have not released a significant
blueprint or proposal.
Immigrant groups and labor organizations are rallying behind the new push for
reform. AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka told Yahoo News Tuesday that organized
labor is “entirely behind” comprehensive immigration reform

and will mount a “full-fledged” campaign to help drive it through Congress.
