Bush urges Hispanics to push immigration bill Despite its revival in the Senate, legislation's fate is uncertain.
WASHINGTON — President Bush urged Hispanics to lobby hard for a major immigration bill Friday, a day after it was revived in the Senate.
"Each day our nation fails to act, the problem only grows worse," Bush said at the annual National Hispanic Prayer Breakfast. "I will continue to work closely with members of both parties to get past our differences and pass a bill I can sign this year."
Bush's comments came after Senate leaders announced a deal Thursday that would allow the legislation to come back to the Senate floor as early as next week.
But the fate of the measure is uncertain.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said Friday that he "insisted on a process to prevent endless debate and get the bill through the Senate."
He said he hoped Republicans would not "stall" the legislation.

They would REALLY laugh up their sleeves at us in that situation.
Karl . . . is that you?
No. Her name is Columba and she is from mexico.
So now he is openly encouraging non-citizens to try to change the law?
I am sure he KNOWS these people seem to be prone to having large demonstrations that often turn violent.
Isn’t this an impeachable offense, fer cryin out loud?
Well, like you, he obviously realizes the only card he's got to play is the race card. Anyone advocating for one race above all others is by definition a racist. Seems to fit you and Bush perfectly. You guys make Jesse Jackson look like an novice at that game.
The only base he has now lol.
“Is his name actually Chezwick?” The “B” must stand for “big”, last name must be “Head”.

Stop blurring the line, troll.
We support LEGAL, RESTRICTED immigration, in which immigrants come here and ASSIMILATE and learn our culture and values.
We are adamantly opposed to ILLEGAL immigration, in which ILLEGAL ALIENS come through our porous borders and wreak havoc in our communities.
Thanks for the laugh.
Oh, and nice try, troll.
Columba Bush (born August 17, 1953) is the wife of former Florida Governor Jeb Bush and the sister-in-law of President George W. Bush.
Bush was born as Columba Garnica Gallo in León, Guanajuato, Mexico, where she grew up and attended high school. Her parents were Jose Maria Garnica, a migrant worker, and Josefina (or Josephina) Gallo who were not “mestizo”
END OF WIKIPEDIA CITE.
My guess is that the "migrant worker" father thing is PART of what's driving Jorge's INSANE plan to flood the nation with 12 to 20 million migrant worker types.
His is the "compassionate conservativism" WE and OUR KIDS will pay for if he is successful.
Thanks for proving my point.
;^(
An American politician pandering to an alien group to effectuate change that he feels is desireable. His conduct is just the beginning of this ploy.
I'm a little confused.
“I’m a little confused....”
Don’t feel alone. I heard Chertoff say the fence was funded. Hunter has said they “have to” fund it. Unless the funding was included in this homeland security bill, which they voted out. Hopefully we will have some more comments on that soon.
Your point is the truth?
That fence bill is the worst sort of Rube Goldberg contraption I’ve ever seen. ;>P
And then you woke up.
