The Republican leadership has two choices. They can bring us together to work out effective compromises for a comprehensive bill. Or they can continue to use hard working immigrants as political pawns for Novembers elections. I hope that they will not choose the politically expedient choiceto embark on another slanderous campaign. featuring more political stunts. misleading press releases. and glossy campaign ads about how tough they are on the border. The Chicago Tribune editorial page understands this tactic. Earlier this week they wrote that "Immigrant bashing is so much easier than immigration reform." Sacrificing good immigration policy for political expediency and hateful rhetoric is not just shamefulit is cowardly. We have the bill to solve this problem now. We owe the American people a serious answer on the issue. and our Republican leadership should be held accountable for their inaction and their inability to address this pressing issue facing our Nation. Lets stop this farce. Lets stop playing politics with immigration. We know they are wrong. Their scheme will leave us weaker and less secure.
