Legal Question in Immigration Law in Wisconsin
Hi Margaret,
I am Leyla Firatli, a journalist from USC's Annenberg News department. We are currently working on a project on the immigration reform with 17 other journalists. It would be a great pleasure for me if you answer my questions by Tuesday, our deadline for the project.
My three questions are;
1) According to you, what can be done to break the stalemate over the immigration reform happening in the country?
2) What do you think about President Obama's 3.8 billion dollar request to use on the aspect on immigration? Why?
3)What is your opinion on the protests that recently happened in Murrieta?
Thank you very much for your help and answers.
Best regards,
Leyla Fıratlı

Dear Leyla:
Please see below:
1) According to you, what can be done to break the stalemate over the immigration reform happening in the country?
Unfortunately, Speaker Boehner will not bring it to the floor. It does not seem this will change. Thus, the voters must essentially vote for whatever party they want, but vote for somebody who does not stop everything at the door.
2) What do you think about President Obama's 3.8 billion dollar request to use on the aspect on immigration? Why?
Since Congress will not act on a comprehensive immigration reform bill (specifically, the House), this is what he is left with to do. I believe it is a reasonable request to stop the influx. As of now, more kids are making the dangerous journey because they believe there will be no problem getting into the U.S.
3)What is your opinion on the protests that recently happened in Murrieta?
I believe it is probably a natural consequence of the events, but also demonstrates the need for immigration reform.
