USA June 10 will see the full senate debate on the comprehensive immigration reform in the legislation. Just as the opponents are gearing up with more fuel for stalling it, the proponents on their own are trying hard to attract Republican votes, enough to clear the bill. The ‘Gang of Senators’ who crafted the immigration reform bill is supporting the bill. Their efforts saw the bill pass in the last month through the Senate Judiciary Committee sans any amendments that could have ripped apart the coalition of Catholics and evangelical Christians, labor and business groups and groups of civil rights and law enforcements.

Proponents to Woo the Republicans

This time along the job is tougher for the proponents who will need formidable and strong support from the Republicans. Hence they are trying hard to woo more Republicans but without losing the backing of the group of key immigrant rights. Moreover, it is to be achieved without hurting the Democrats either.

Charles Schumer, the leading U.S. senator of New York Democrat seemed more confident about the immigration reform bill (http://www.canadaupdates.com/content/us-immigration-bill-...)’s acceptance. In his appearance on the television show related to weekly public affairs ‘Meet the Press, he expressed confidence about the bill getting passed by today the Independence Day of United States. This support and optimism from Schumer is understandable as he is one of the eight bipartisan that created the bill. The bill is expected to overhaul the complete U.S. immigration system and will clear the roads of getting US citizenship (http://www.canadaupdates.com/) for the undocumented foreign workers who are in millions and at present living in the U.S.

Challenges and Oppositions

If the Democrats and the other groups are supporting the bill so optimistically, the opponents and some Republicans do not seem to be on accepting terms. At least the statement by Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Florida Representative of the Republican seems to suggest so. Speaking on the ‘State of the Union’ public affairs show he stated that the Florida House, represented by the Republican is not at all interested whether the bill passes or not. On the other hand, they are going to come up with their own format of the immigration reform.

Contrary to this, the approach of Jeff Sessions, a senate representing Alabama Republican is purely that of an opponent. Although he is still carrying the opposition flag on his own shoulders, his persistent efforts can create trouble for the bill’s passage.
