Janet Napolitano Pushes Immigration Bill for ILLEGALS
Janet Napolitano Pushes Immigration Bill for Illegals
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano mounted a vigorous defense of the Senate Gang of Eight’s comprehensive immigration plan on Tuesday, calling the legislation an “important first step” to reforming the nation’s immigration laws.
In testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Napolitano said the 844-page bill would improve the immigration system in several ways: it would modernize the current legal immigration system, implement stricter accountability measures for employers and improve border security.
Napolitano also praised the provision that would provide a pathway to citizenship for the roughly 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the U.S.
But several Republicans were still skeptical of whether the border would be sufficiently secured under the Senate legislation. Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley, the top Republican on the Judiciary Committee, said the bill appeared to have a policy of “legalize now, enforce later.”
Another Republican, Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions, argued that the Senate bill gave “extraordinary” discretion to Napolitano and the Department of Homeland Security on immigration matters.
