President Barack Obama will head to Texas next week to deliver a speech on immigration reform, the White House announced Friday, reviving an intense policy debate over one of the nation's most pressing issues. Obama will discuss the topic during a Tuesday visit to El Paso, Texas -- a town only miles from the center of drug-related violence in Mexico, that has, at times, spilled over into the US.
He will also visit the Texas capital, Austin, to raise money for his re-election campaign.
"The speech will reflect the President's continued commitment to find a bipartisan way to create a bipartisan -- rather comprehensive immigration reform," White House spokesman Jay Carney said Friday. "The fact that we were not able to achieve that in the first two years only means that we need to refocus our efforts and try to find that compromise."

There was really no effort in the first two years.
This is all geared to help in his re-election. Pretty sad that we are getting played like this.
