A U.S. Green Card
Get ready for some strident debate next month. Congress is preparing to tackle immigration reform.

Meeting President Bush's challenge to do so "without animosity and without amnesty" will require policymakers to settle four critical questions: (1) Does the White House's current approach resemble amnesty? (2) What will it cost taxpayers to allow illegal immigrants and their relatives to become citizens? (3) How will reform affect national security? (4) What will a Democrat-controlled House and Senate present to President Bush?

Before they begin debating, lawmakers should consider some recent political history.

Logan‘s boys varsity soccer team played against Newark Memorial for the first round of the Mission Valley Athletic League playoffs. The Colts started out playing weakly, allowing Cougars to lead the game 3-0 with only 20 minutes left in the game. Even though they were behind, the Colts never gave up and roared back to win the Wednesday game.

“ I always believe that we have a chance to win, no matter the situation. As long as we stick to what got us here in the first place” says Logan coach Matthew Sills.

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Elie Wiesel, the Nobel Peace-prize-winning Holocaust survivor and scholar, was grabbed and pulled out of a San Francisco hotel elevator last week — and now police and Jewish groups are mounting a intensive search for his attacker.

A blogger boasted about the Feb. 1 incident on an anti-Zionist Web site based in Australia on Wednesday, prompting the first media reports. The blogger claimed he had been trailing Wiesel for weeks and wrote he intended to get "a cornered Wiesel" to come to his room and renounce the Holocaust on video. The posting also suggests the attacker was seeking publicity from the attack on the 78-year-old Wiesel.
