Maria Rodriguez, CHIRLA youth organizer, said CHIRLA will be kicking off actions to lobby for immigration reform and a consensus needed to be met to determine the main concern and strategic planning for political lobby. The campus representatives in attendance voted to lobby for Just and Humane Immigration Reform campaign in 2009 The consensus shifted from two years prior when the focus was based on lobbying for the DREAM Act. CHIRLA’s actions will coincide with other pro-immigration rights groups that will present immigration reform packages to the incoming administration. “We need to create and take part in actions in order to put pressure on the new administration to do what is necessary for just and humane immigration reform,” Rodriguez said. “Things will be changing from weeks to months. We must be prepped to quickly mobilize.” A timeline for 2009 was provided by CHIRLA. The scheduled timeline cited the introduction of some type of immigration reform within the first 100 days of President Barack Obama’s term in office. The timeline differentiated between comprehensive immigration reform and the DREAM Act. The tentative timeline cited the introduction of the DREAM Act to the 111th United States Congress in early March. Followed by a marked up legislative bill on comprehensive immigration reform expected for introduction to Congress in late May. The “marked up” bill is expected to be a rewrite of Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act 2007 (S.134  the bill introduced and discussed upon two years ago by Congress.The proposed legislation for comprehensive immigration reform will be based on a “just and humane immigration reform,” which will be inclusive of all undocumented citizens, not only students. According to CHIRLA’s timeline,it is expected that major activity and debate over the bill on comprehensive reform will happen during the Summer as well as a discussion and voting to take place in September. |

On your last question,this is why I believe they are not really serious about tackling immigration since I'm pretty sure they know what to expect after it has failed the last 2 times. |

I have also noticed that Frank sharry is one of those guys who wants all or nothing, so i tend to take his commentary with a grain of salt.
