it is time to stop this charade on immigration. Since the Republican leadership is unable to reach an agreement with its members, or even their Republican president, they have become more interested in producing harsh rhetoric and meaningless acts than passing comprehensive and realistic immigration reform. The House and Senate have each passed their respective bills. It is past time to convene a conference committee to reconcile these bills. Both chambers must work together to reach an agreement that produces true immigration reform instead of wasting its time harassing immigrants and local businesses and passing meaningless provisions that have little chance of becoming law.
