For immigration reform that works
The Miami Herald published an opinion article;
"Like many other immigrant-rich regions, South Florida would greatly benefit from comprehensive immigration reform, particularly if it includes a path to legalization for 11 million undocumented people in this country. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., will be promoting his own reform proposal -- the best of a variety of proposed immigration bills -- when he hosts a town hall meeting on the issue tonight in Miami.
The senator has come to the right place. South Florida is a hot spot for immigrants who have lived the American dream and others still struggling to gain legal status. Our local communities have benefited from immigrant entrepreneurs and workers. But our social services are stretched by poor and undocumented residents, and Homeland Security keeps busy interdicting migrants at sea.
