Durbin: Immigration bill ‘unlikely’ in ’10

Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) said it’s “unlikely” that the Senate would move on immigration reform this year.

Durbin said that a tough political environment, especially for Republicans, made it all but politically impossible to move forward with an immigration bill.

“It’s unlikely we’ll get to it this year,” Durbin told the liberal Bill Press radio show, pointing to the political environment. http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/97397-durbin-immigration-reform-unlikely-this-yearBy Michael O’Brien — The Hill
