Senator Amy Klobuchar Makes Statement After Voting for Immigration Bill and Amendments to Move Forward

U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar made the following statement today after voting for the Senate immigration bill and its amendments to move forward:

"The current system is broken. We must continue to work to find a bipartisan solution that is tough, fair, and practical. Comprehensive immigration reform needs to include order at the border, including fencing and increased patrols; better enforcement of our immigration laws, including cracking down on employers who hire illegal workers; and the prospect of earned citizenship for those who obey our laws and who are willing to learn English, pay their taxes, and pay a substantial fine."
