According to an article on boston.com: “At a town hall meeting in southern California yesterday, Obama renewed his support for comprehensive reform, including a possible path to citizenship for law-abiding people who entered the country illegally, along the lines of the bill that stalled in Congress in 2007.”
The issue of immigration needs to be successfully addressed. The backlogs are tremendous and adjudications are getting to be out of control in many instances. Regarding a legalization component of an immigration reform package that is employment-based for those who are out of status – Congress and the Obama administration have their work cut out for them.
