While little action on immigration matters is expected to occur this week, advocates and policymakers interested in immigration reform should keep their eyes on next week. House and Senate conferees are expected by then to reach some critical decisions on a number of immigration policy matters that are in contention in the fiscal year 2010 Homeland Security Appropriations bill. The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), the nation's leading immigration restrictionist organization, has organized a massive lobby week for next week. And President Obama, Representative Luis Gutierrez (D-IL), and Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ) are expected next week to make important remarks before the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute's Policy Conference.

I'm sick of meetings and 'get-togethers' that do not accomplish s***t.

The government, the people, us, teachers, employers, doctors, and every rock under the sun knows what to do. It shouldn't have to wait until the DHS budget gets discussed because there are people's lives at stakes here.

And the goverment should really stop deporting people who would otherwise qualify for relief under this act and cease their nazi-style raids that force mixed status families to turn their family members in; it is immoral.

you hit the nail in the head their nazi style raids damn thats powerfull thats exactly what they do to us the same thing hitler did to the jews no driving privilages no voting no anything next thing you now off we go!!!the government only cares about their political carreers and they dont care about the well being of the individuals!!!!

well maybe the Fema camps are for us.

We have to counter their efforts by calling on-the-fence Senators come next week. Everyone should be ready for this.

PS: FAIR is no "restrictionist organization," it's a well-known white supremacist hate group founded by John Tanton.

what we need to do is be as loud or louder...we need to grab attention very one very one needs to show up to sept 23 back to school dream day of action we have to show we are brave w/ numbers...just as we did in killin the sensenbrenner bill.....we have to support and advocate for the dream act cuz noone will but us......
