Dear Speaker Boehner | National Catholic Reporter

Dear Speaker Boehner | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: I will assume Boehner is really well briefed on this issue - including the impact of not having workers in the shadows on the price of food (and the profits of food producing companies who like cheap labor).  He also has Tea Party nativism to deal with and the fear that they may yet try to remove him as Speaker.  In reality, he should go with the Senate bill - its the best he will get.  I long for the day when an immigration bill can be passed without punitive measures.  Indeed, the best way to stop any flood of undocumented workers is to repeal right-to-work laws and immigration restrictions.  Do that and companies won't hire unionlized legalized immigrant labor (unless no one else really will take the job for a fair wage).
