The Benton County Daily Record has published this op-ed piece from the Boston Globe this morning. It talks about the Senate and a comprehensive immigration bill that desperately needs to be passed…two things are shocking here; one - Amnesty is a part of this bill and secondly it was published in NWA - NWA is moving right along.

The U. S. Senate has a historic chance to pass a strong immigration reform. Senate action could lead to a law that strengthens the border and helps millions of undocumented workers come out of the shadows and find legal employment.

A thoughtfully constructed bill could end a treacherous era in which the letter of law has been unevenly applied: Sometimes the country winks at immigration violations; sometimes officials crack down hard. Without a clear, consistent policy, the unspoken advice to undocumented workers is chilly: Just don’t get caught.
