Editorial American people struggle with lack of immigration reform efforts

Immigration reform is a topic that has been discussed for decades. Although there has been plenty of talk about this reform, there has been little to no action. We expect the government to be the leaders of our country, but when they refuse to take action it feels as though, rather than leading, they are falling farther and farther behind. A recent Gallup poll, conducted between Feb. 6-9, found that 44 percent of Americans rank deal- ing with the large number of immigrants already in the U.S. as “extremely important,” and 43 percent rank border security in the same way. This is a stark contrast to a few years ago, when many more Americans worried about border security. Given the new public perceptions regarding immigration reform, our government needs to get to work, and many politicians agree. President Obama issued a call to action for the American people, recently commenting that, “The main thing people can do right now is put pressure on Republicans who have refused so far to act.” The desire to see meaningful immigration reform is not only restricted to democrats, though. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., has been known as a staunch proponent of getting a deal done and helped author the Senate’s comprehensive im- migration legislation last summer. “I would again urge my House colleagues to consider whatever way they want to pursue to try to address this issue because it’s going to have to be addressed,” said McCain during an interview with “State of the Union” host Candy Crowley. Those House colleagues, led by Speaker of the House John Boehner, R-Ohio, do not seem eager to listen to their 2008 presidential candidate, however. Boehner has made waves with the more conser- Illustration: Michael Caley/Iowa State Daily While most video games layer storylines and turn out striking visuals, Flappy Bird’s simplistic design and plot attracted many vative fringes of his party by calling out certain users.

After issuing a list of principles that the GOP would heed regarding any reforms, Boehner hit the brakes, saying that he and other Republicans couldn’t trust Obama to enforce any potential law as written. This is an extremely weak argument, but one that allows Boehner and his fellow republicans Flappy Bird to shift the focus of immigration questions to the widely unpopular Obama and his repeated execu- By Zachary.Neuendorf this level of success, so he was un- Flappy Bird has steadily picked up tive actions delaying or altering the controversial @iowastatedaily.com prepared for the backlash.
