Immigration Legislation: Obama calls for progress on immigration reform in lame-duck session

We are not holding our breath for anything to happen in the lame duck session of Congress. (It is interesting that this report showed up in a Chinese news service, Xinhua.)

Obama calls for progress on immigration reform in lame-duck session: "U.S. President Barack Obama on Tuesday called on the Congress to approve a key part of the immigration reform in the lame-duck session.

'The President and the Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CHC) leaders believe that, before adjourning, Congress should approve the DREAM Act,' the White House said in a statement after Obama's meeting with the CHC leadership in the Oval office. ...

'The President reiterated his support for fixing the broken immigration system and urged the CHC leaders to work to restore the bipartisan coalition backing comprehensive immigration reform, ' said the statement." Nov. 16, 2010, Xinhua
