Congressman John Yarmuth and our panel will discuss immigration issues and its impact on our community and nation. Following the Obama Administration directive granting folks who'd be eligible for the DREAM Act a reprieve from deportation and work-authorization papers, the U.S. Senate passed a Comprehensive Immigration Reform Bill, which is currently tabled by House Speaker John Boehner. Meanwhile, issues about citizenship, deportation, border security, etc., continue to concern voters.
