The House Immigration Reform Caucus, responding to President Bush's call to produce a "comprehensive" immigration-reform bill by the end of the year, said rewarding illegal aliens who broke the law with a path to citizenship will encourage not discourage illegal entry.
"The administration's proposal offends the American people's sense of fairness," said Rep. Lamar Smith, caucus member and ranking Republican on the House Judiciary Committee. "It treats illegal aliens better than legal immigrants who have played by the rules and come in the right way."
