...along with a path to citizenship for certain working immigrants. A Democratic Congress is much more likely to craft a Bush-style solution. Bush and the Democrats may well start with modest reforms like the AgJobs bill, an attempt by Senators from both parties to normalize the immigrant farm-labor economy. It stalled in the House this year...
...cannot imagine the future of North America--Canada, the U.S., Mexico--without a free market. Free in all senses of the word, in terms of goods and services and in terms of labor too. You cannot have an efficient and prosperous economy, even in the U.S., without developing a single, free market. On the other hand, I realize how important the immigration problem is for Americans.

As well, Tanner and others have stripped out those parts of the a.l.p. platform that...
...Labor has lacked spark and concord for most of the Howard years. Since Beazley regained the leadership last year, the parliamentary party has settled in behind him. Tanner says knocking off the incumbents will be difficult, particularly on the issue of economic management. "The bar is very high," he says of the obstacles. "We have to be seen as competent, coherent and unified?that we have a clear purpose." It's too early to tell how Labor will play the election, but Beazley and his colleagues have been road-testing their ripest ideas. In the hand-to-hand combat...
