The timing of everything is eerie.

H.R. 4437 was passed in the House on 12/16/05, and was referred to Senate committee on 1/27/06. The Judiciary Cmte has been sitting on it since, and it never made big news, except around here.

Suddenly, 4437 becomes BIG NEWS.
Suddenly, the Senate is working on 3 different immigration bills, one of which passed Judiciary Cmte last Friday.

And, coincidentally, President Bush will be meeting President Fox in Mexico this coming Thursday.

You have the Olmos movie coming out a week ago, and you have these demos targeted for this past weekend and this week.

What a convergence!

Immigration Bill Includes Amnesty for Illegals, Critics Say

The bill faces an uphill battle in the Senate, where Majority Leader Bill Frist opposes it and may advance his own bill instead. Moreover, any bill allowing "earned legalization" will face strong opposition in the House of Representatives, which passed a bill in December making illegal immigration a felony.

A much more lenient bill emerged from the Senate Judiciary Committee on Monday.

"The country has spoken, and today the Senate listened," Sen. Ted Kennedy said, referring to recent rallies across the United States in support of "earned legalization."

"No issue goes to the heart of who we are as Americans more than immigration," Kennedy said in a statement on his website.

The bill's most controversial measure, advanced by Kennedy and Sen. John McCain, includes a path to permanent residence and citizenship for people who came here illegally.

Millions of undocumented workers already in this country would be allowed to apply for temporary legal status for six years, but they would have to prove they're employed in the U.S.

They also would have to pay a $2,000 fine, undergo background and security checks, learn English and study American civics, pay back taxes, and then wait in line behind others who have applied for U.S. citizenship.
