Thank you Senator Specter for inviting me to testify today, my name is Eileen Connelly and I am the Executive Director of the Pennsylvania State Council for the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), a Change to Win union.

In summary, SEIU supports comprehensive immigration reform – securing our borders both north and south, treating undocumented immigrants firmly but fairly by requiring them to undergo background checks, pay a fine and learn English in exchange for getting on a path to citizenship, and addressing the need in our economy for future workers, who have full protection of labor law and enforcement.

Interesting that the Union's position parallels that of Bush and the other open borders crowd.

How do you Bushbots reconcile that? Is Bush now a supporter of Unions?

The SEIU also has a very high proportion of the rank and file are Hispanic.
