How likely is it that Congress will tackle immigration reform by the end of the year? Depends who you ask.


On Monday, White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said the president would like to see action on immigration reform this year, but "currently where we sit, the math makes that real difficult."


On Tuesday, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid told reporters that if the floor time can be found, "we have the floor votes to do it."

And on Wednesday, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), chairman of the Judiciary subcommittee that handles immigration, went one step further, saying that "all the fundamental building blocks are in place to pass comprehensive reform this session, and even possibly later this year."

Even if they say that we have enough votes, we should still not let our guard down and keep the momentum. That means, call your senators, spread the word, keep being active!!!
