Re: Reid Dashes Hope Of Quick Work On Immigration Reform
 
We KNOW that they are pandering - but we don't care. Finish the bill. The current bill is the Republican bill. I want to see the Democratic bill. The healthcare reform bill was mostly the Republican bill that McCain had proposed in 2007. Yet it is misrepresented as a Democrat legislation. This is what Sen.Reid is saying over and over: BRING ME A BILL! And I will put it to the floor. He's also in a way calling out Schummer, the president et al. So that should be our goal as it has been of NCLR among others: The legislation. Forget for a moment about it becoming law. Show it.

NY is a big immigration state. Schummer needs to feel the heat as well. This is all over the activists organizations (not Reform for America and America's Voice, aka as "Obama can do no wrong in our eyes; you get a free pass on everything). The real progressive ones like change.org.
