Politicians passionate about immigration reform are attempting to define the debate in anticipation that Congress may take up the highly volatile issue this year.
Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, leads a group of freshman Republicans and moderate Democrats who support a resolution that says any reform proposal must not include a way for undocumented immigrants to gain legal status. The resolution supported by 12 Republicans and 10 Democrats also calls for bolstered border protection and a new requirement for all employers to verify the immigration status of their workers using the federal E-Verify program.
