Obama presses case for immigration reform- By Greg Sargent

President Obama is set to travel to Texas tomorrow, where he’ll renew his push for immigration reform.

                    

The talking points also suggest that Obama’s message will rest heavily on the assertion that his administration has dealt with people’s preliminary objection to immigration reform by successfully tackling border security, meaning it’s now time for a permanent solution:

· ... immigration reform is an economic imperative...

        · ... we need to reform our immigration system ...

· ... we must fix our current system...

· ... eliminate a massive underground economy that exploits a cheap source of labor...

        · ...strengthening border security...
       
        · ...border patrol agents today is double what it was in 2004...
