Hate to Say I Told You So but……Immigration not on Prelim Dem Agenda

immigration.jpgWhen I was on NPR two weeks ago, I said that the Democrats had not placed immigration reform on their to do list if they were to win Congress. Well yesterday Democratic Senator from New York, Chuck Schumer gave a preliminary outline of the Democratic agenda and immigration reform wasn’t there. Among some of the issues the Dems want to tackle include raising the minimum wage, the cost of meds for senior citizens, and lowering energy costs.
So for those who voted Democrat in the hopes of comprehensive immigration reform and for those undocumented immigrants who put their hopes in the Democrats to grant them a path to citizenship, seems like the Dems have let them down……again.
