Biden: Amnesty at Odds With Economic Reality

Last week, Vice President Joe Biden addressed Central American leaders in Costa Rica and indicated that passage of amnesty legislation has been made more difficult with the United States' current economic slowdown and rising joblessness. "It's difficult to tell a constituency while unemployment is rising, they're losing their jobs and their homes, that what we should do is in fact legalize [illegal immigrants] and stop all deportation," Biden said. Biden then took the opportunity to reaffirm the Obama Administration's support for so-called "comprehensive" immigration reform. "We need some forbearance as we try to put together a comprehensive approach to deal with this." (The Arizona Republic, April 3, 2009; and Reuters, March 30, 2009).

Despite the vocal activity of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, other amnesty supporters also appear to be questioning whether the passage of amnesty legislation will be feasible given the nation's current economic climate. (Politico, April 3, 2009). The Los Angeles Times reports that, "[w]ith unemployment on the rise, the immigration debate has moved to the back burner as lawmakers fear enacting a law that could be portrayed as beneficial for immigrants at the expense of struggling American workers." (The Los Angeles Times, March 27, 2009).
