Will there be an immigration reform this year?
 
Sorry guys it's in spanish, but here's a relevant article. I tried to translate some parts of it. And sorry again if this has been posted before.

El Presidente Barack Obama habló recientemente con más de 60 líderes latinos –entre los que destacaron representantes empresariales, legisladores y organizaciones pro inmigrantes que representan a grupos minoritarios en todo el país– para que se pongan de acuerdo sobre qué elementos deberían formar parte de una ley de reforma migratoria.

President Obama met recently with more than 60 leaders -including CEOs, legislators, and pro-immigration organizations representing minority groups all over the country, to come to an agreement as to what factors should be part of an immigration reform.

Es el primer pronunciamiento oficial de la Casa Blanca en este tema. Es más, el Presidente indicó que quiere una propuesta sólida en unos 90 días, aunque no fijó una fecha de cuándo quisiera firmar una ley respecto de la legalización de las personas indocumentadas.

It's the first official statement from the White House in this matter. The President indicated that he wants a solid proposal in 90 days, even though he did not set a date as to when an immigration reform would be signed.

Según un comunicado de la Casa Blanca, el impacto de la crisis económica sobre las familias latinas dominó la conversación sobre las inquietudes de nuestra comunidad, seguido de cerca por la alta tasa de abandono de los estudios secundarios entre los latinos y la necesidad de solucionar los problemas del sistema de inmigración del país. Estas reuniones y comunicados fortalecen la esperanza de los inmigrantes indocumentados, ya que dentro de un período de tiempo no muy lejano podrían alcanzar el sueño de la residencia permanente y luego la ciudadanía americana.

According to a statement released by the White House, the economic crisis, high school drop out rate among hispanics, and the necessity to solve the problems of the immigration system in the US were the top concerns among the hispanic community.

Tenemos que aplaudir el que las organizaciones pro inmigrantes nacionales y locales nunca aflojaron su arduo trabajo por la reforma. Hoy, más que nunca, esas organizaciones están intensificando sus acciones para conseguir un cambio a las leyes migratorias, lo cual se conseguirá con el trabajo conjunto de nuestros legisladores, los grupos civiles, los medios de comunicación y el buen comportamiento de los indocumentados.

Wow this is great! 90 days? Hopefully that solid proposal is one that has to do with the Dream Act and not only CIR

EDIT: Is there a date on this article? I can't seem to find one.

That will put this proposal around May, CIR might be taken up around September?

My dad bought the newspaper where it was published, it has to be current. I can't find a date either but tomorrow I'll look at the paper copy and see what date it has.
