IMMIGRATION REFORM IN LAME DUCK SESSION?

Posted By Bradley Maged On October 5, 2010 @ 10:56 am In Uncategorized | No Comments

According to an article on [1] thehill.com: “Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) defended his introduction of an immigration bill just before leaving for the campaign recess as either an opportunity for lawmakers to take up the legislation either in the lame-duck session or in the next Congress.”

Although I applaud the Senator’s efforts, the chance of Congress passing CIR in the lame duck session is as likely as the sense of hope the term “lame duck” evokes.
