Boehner Immigration Reform Outline Garners Praise

House Speaker John Boehner’s outline for a prospective immigration reform bill received an encouraging “thumbs up” of approval from Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY). “With the Republicans agreeing on a broad-based amnesty we have a good foundation for the type of reform we need.”

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif) was more cautious in her assessment. “I don’t want to say what John has done isn’t a worthy effort,” she declared. “However, legalizing these immigrants without giving them a fast-track to citizenship is unacceptable. They’ve been mowing our lawns and making our beds for under-the-table wages for too long. It’s time they got full voting rights so they can participate in our democracy.”

President Obama’s pollster, Joel Benenson, echoed Pelosi’s view saying that “legalized non-citizens may satisfy the Chamber of Commerce’s interests, but it doesn’t offer enough to win Democratic support. If business gets their cheap labor we ought to get new Democratic voters as a quid pro quo.”

Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush (R) called the GOP’s enactment of immigration reform “essential if they want me to run for president in 2016. It is the key to creating the kind of joyful environment that would make being the country’s president a worthwhile use of my time.”
