Bush, Reif and Others Plan to Resurrect Controversial Immigration Reform Bill
WorldNetDaily: President Bush wants Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to resurrect the controversial immigration-reform bill that was pulled last night after a motion to cut off debate failed, White House adviser Dan Bartlett said today. Asked about the bill as Bush prepared to leave the G8 Summit in Germany, Bartlett told CNN the president believes declaring it dead is premature, and he wants Reid to consider putting it back on the table. . . . Bush plans to use a scheduled lunch with GOP senators Tuesday as part of a campaign by the White House and allies in both parties to placate or outmaneuver Republicans who blocked the measure, the Associated Press reported. . . . Reid and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said the issue may be brought up again, with McConnell advising, "I wouldn't wait a whole long time to do it." Fox News reported that all of the GOP lawmakers it interviewed believed the legislation could be revived soon – "even within a matter of weeks, with one negotiator noting that last year's bill was first pulled from the floor by then-Majority Leader Bill Frist before it was brought back up again and passed." Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said he and Reid are confident the bill will be back. . . . ARRA Comment:On Capitol News Today on CSPAN (6/8/07), Sen. Kennedy, Sen. Graham, Sen and othersidentified that the immigration bill is going to be reintroducted. They indicated they plan to attempt to overcome some of the objections: Graham says the votes are there when it makes it to a vote and the bill will get "passed with flying colors!"Tags:amnesty, Bill Frist, Harry Reid, illegal aliens, illegal immigration, immigration reform, Lindsey Graham, Mitch McConnell, President George BushTo share or post to your site, click on "Post Link".
