Today, the House Judiciary Committee holds a hearing to focus on the KIDS Act, a Republican version of the DREAM Act that would offer legalization for some young immigrants. The House is following a piecemeal, less-than-citizenship approach to immigration reform. An influential Republican leader comments on the prospects for comprehensive immigration reform in a House where the leadership doesn’t show a sense of urgency and won’t allow measures that include a path to citizenship.
Guests: Carlos Gutierrez, Chairman, Republicans for Immigration Reform, Former U.S. Secretary of Commerce, Washington, D.C., http://www.republicansforimmigrationreform.org/; Larry Kleinman, Member of Executive Committee, Fair Immigration Reform Movement (FIRM), Woodburn, OR,www.fairimmigration.org
