Don't look now! Amnesty is back

A new battle over illegal immigration is rapidly shaping up in the nation's capital.

Supporters of comprehensive immigration reform are demanding immediate legislative action from the Obama administration with a planned mass demonstration in Washington scheduled for March 21, billed as "March for America: Change Takes Courage."

Meanwhile, Sens. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., have been meeting with the White House to reintroduce immigration legislation. The bipartisan effort is reminiscent of twice-failed attempts by Sens. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass., and John McCain, R-Ariz., during the administration of President George W. Bush.

Yet, Mark Krikorian, executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies, does not expect any comprehensive immigration reform legislation to be pushed by the Obama administration in Congress this year.

"There is very little appetite in Congress to deal with immigration reform this year largely, because President Obama does not truly care about pushing comprehensive immigration," Krikorian told WND.

"President Obama only mentions comprehensive immigration reform when talking to Hispanic groups. It's not high on his legislative agenda, and that's why we are seeing the discontent among the open-borders groups."

In a controversial move that recalls the effort to create a Real ID national identity card and the current E-Verify system, Schumer and Graham have announced their intention to create a biometric national ID card that workers would need to present to employers to demonstrate their legal status to work.

Krikorian considers this a ruse.
