Sen. Cornyn: I Agree With President Obama, Comprehensive Immigration Reform Must Be Addressed This Year

Looks forward to seeing President's proposal for long-overdue comprehensive immigration reform

U.S. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, today released the following statement commending President Obama for his willingness to address immigration reform this year.

"I applaud President Obama's commitment to addressing comprehensive immigration reform this year, and stand ready to work with him to produce a product that represents the best interests of America, including respect for the rule of law, national security and economic security.

"Comprehensive, common-sense immigration reform remains a top priority for me. Any legislation must protect our borders, promote economic prosperity in Texas and throughout the United States, and be consistent with our American values of compassion, family, and opportunity."
