The bitter battle over the immigration bill has become a legislative minefield in this election year, though it's still unclear whether November will see any heavy political fallout as a result. To put it mildly, this issue is a thorny wilderness, festering intra-party divisions and brewing voter backlashes. It could inflict additional wounds on George W. Bush's battle-scarred presidency, shrink the GOP's congressional Republican majority and, possibly, hurt some vulnerable Democrats. Let's slice up some of these pitfalls. Stand Up For America ! |

What Might Have Been
In its rush to pass "a lick and a promise" immigration reform bill before the holiday recess, the U.S. House squandered a valuable opportunity to endorse a comprehensive plan to turn back the tide of illegal immigration in America. Such a plan is contained in Congressman Hayworth's legislative proposal, H.R. 3938, The Enforcement First Immigration Reform Act. H.R.3938 Enforcement First Immigration Reform Act of 2005 (Introduced in House)
