Failure to Embrace Comprehensive Immigration Reform is Sinful (Sen. Ken Salazar)

by Colo. Dem. Sen. Ken Salazar - 05/02/07 9:00 AM ET

I think it’ll be a sin if the Republicans in Washington, D.C. today don’t embrace a comprehensive immigration reform package. Last year, there were 64 senators and the president who endorsed us moving forward in a bipartisan way. There are some forces at work today to try to derail what will be presented on May 15th. I hope they think better because if they decide to put politics ahead of national security and the economic and moral issues at stake, I think they are doing a disservice to our country.
