Bush
seeks unity on immigration
Senator Edward
M. Kennedy, a Massachusetts Democrat who is set to take the
chairmanship of the subcommittee that oversees immigration issues,
has already met with leading Republicans -- including Senator
John
McCain of Arizona and Senator Arlen
Specter of Pennsylvania, the Judiciary Committee's top Republican
-- to begin crafting a new bill early next year. "The dynamics
are right," said Kennedy, who worked closely with McCain
and others on the immigration bill that passed the Senate earlier
this year. |
