Those House Hearings -- The Complete List
Here's the complete list of hearings on the Senate's immigration bill that House Republicans plan to announce today at 11:00 a.m.
Judiciary Committee
July 18th --- Do the Reid-Kennedy bill's amnesty provisions repeat the mistakes of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986?
July 27th --- Will the Reid-Kennedy bill's amnesty provisions overwhelm the already overburdened U. S. Citizenship and Immigration Services? Will 10-20 million new applicants for citizenship make it easier for criminals and terrorists to evade background checks?
Homeland Security Committee
July 20th --- How does the Reid-Kennedy bill compare to the House Border Security bill when it comes to enhancing border infrastructure?
July 27th --- Does the Reid-Kennedy bill make it more difficult for law enforcement to expedite the removal of illegal aliens from the United States?
Education and the Workforce Committee
July 19th --- What is the impact of the Reid-Kennedy bill on American workers and their workplaces?
July 26th --- What is the role of English in American education and society, and does the Reid-Kennedy bill undermine, rather than encourage, this role?
International Relations Committee
July 27th --- To what degree is illegal immigration an issue for countries in the Western Hemisphere, and does the Reid-Kennedy bill undercut American diplomatic efforts aimed at curbing illegal immigration?
