MALIBU, Calif. -- WASHINGTON: President Obama continues to be the main motivation and brain behind USA’s bipartisan Immigration Bill. In a typical Obama Immigration Reform speech at Las Vegas, Nevada the President opened up his thoughts threadbare on the immigration Bill debate. He lashed out at the right wing critics and reminded them that those pointing fingers at the immigrants as them were also ‘them’ many years ago.

Now is the Time

Obama said that most Americans would agree that it is the time to fix a system that has been broken for too long. He was referring to immigration system and noted that all business leaders, labour leaders and leaders from parties also agree that this is the time to welcome the immigrants who see America as a land of opportunity.

Nation of Immigrants

Obama reminded that USA defines itself as a nation of immigrants. It keeps the workforce young and keeps the country on the cutting edge. It also helped build the greatest economic engine the world has ever known.

It was after all, the immigrants who helped businesses like Google and Yahoo besides many new industries that spawned jobs and prosperity for citizens. In fact one in four high-tech startups in America were founded by immigrants. One in four new small business owners are immigrants.

Right now, the US has 11 million undocumented immigrants who are from all over the world and live their lives in shadows. They have broken the rules. Still these 11 million men and women are here and live as contributing members of the community. They are looking after their families. As all of us they go out to earn a living but in a shadow economy where employers offer them less than the minimum wage or make them work overtime.

Goal is Clear

A comprehensive immigration reform means smarter enforcement; a pathway to earned citizenship; improvements in the legal immigration system so that USA continue to be a magnet for the best and the brightest from the world.

Immigration debate always enflames passions. That is not surprising. A few things are more important to us as a society than who is coming here and call the country home and who gets the privilege of being a citizen of the United States of America.

Bill Highlights

Under Obama Immigration Reform Details (http://www.immigranttaxgroup.org/2012/12/10/obama-immigra...) the bipartisan Bill has provisions for costly border-security programs and a calibrated path to citizenship for 11 million undocumented immigrants who came to the U.S. before 2012. The 13-year road map to citizenship is dotted with milestones of reforms in visa programs, requiring employers to verify their workers and doubling the amount of agents stationed on the southern border.

The Senate has already passed the Bill. In the media also immigration-reform supporters have outshone opponents by a ratio of 3 to 1. Despite harsh critics decrying the bill’s flaws, the outcry at the grass root that sank the George Bush-backed immigration-reform bill of late 80s is not going to work this time.
