California Farmers Press Congress for Immigration Bill
Mar 14, 2013 6
(GoldRushCam) - Even as Congress struggled with sequestration and other budget matters, members from both sides of the aisle told California Farm Bureau Federation representatives they believe momentum is continuing toward comprehensive reform of federal immigration law—and that a revised agricultural immigration program will be part of the package.
Advocating for immigration reform was a top priority for CFBF board members who visited Washington, D.C., for three days of meetings last week. The Farm Bureau representatives met with key members of the California congressional delegation, staff of the Senate and House Judiciary Committees that will shape immigration legislation, plus White House staff members who are working on the issue.
