Trent Lott usually doesn’t answer his Senate phone himself, but when angry callers are burning up the lines — as they are over this week’s debate about revising the nation’s immigration laws — the Republicans’ No. 2 Senate leader has picked up to hear what they have to say.
A lot of the talk is misinformation, he says. Talk radio and the blogs were blasting the compromise bill, which includes a guest-worker program and a path to legal status for many illegal immigrants, well before the bill’s text was ready for senators Tuesday. |
“We talked for 15 minutes,” said the Mississippi senator, recounting one call. “I can’t talk to everyone in America for 15 minutes. … But if you cower in the shadows, you’ll get pummeled. … You’ve got to stand up.” (more…)

The lure of riches in a foreign land, the potential of awesome new opportunities, dreams of what might be – all these sometimes entice people to immigrate to a different country. Being reunited with a loved one or just longing for adventure are also strong reasons for immigrating. Sometimes, rather than being drawn to a new country, one is pushed: religious persecution, starvation when the crops have failed, escaping unbearable family situations.
|
Certainly wars, revolutions and political unrest have caused thousands to try to find a peaceful existence elsewhere. And decades ago, many were forced against their will to live in a new country as slaves or as prisoners.
For all who move on, pulling up roots from their homeland can be traumatic. It truly is not an easy decision to make, and today about 15% of those who leave their native country choose to return, finding that adjusting to a new society is too difficult. (more…)

The bipartisan “grand bargain” on immigration announced Thursday — promising the most sweeping changes to U.S. immigration law in more than two decades — met a swift onslaught from the no-amnesty right and a warm, if qualified, embrace from leading pro-immigrant groups on the left.
No wonder. The pact offers quick legalization of the estimated 12 million people living illegally in the United States as of Jan. 1. |
Within eight years, it also would provide permanent residence — the coveted green card — to 4 million new immigrants, mostly family members of those already here, who have been waiting a decade or longer to enter the United States from Mexico, the Philippines and other countries. (more…)

|
Under the tentative deal, undocumented workers who crossed into the country before Jan. 1 would be offered a temporary-residency permit while they await a new “Z Visa” that would allow them to live and work lawfully here. (more…)
