Key lawmakers, advisers huddle on immigration reform

Key lawmakers and activists from all corners of immigration reform held a closed-door meeting in Sen. Curtis Bramble’s office Wednesday night in an attempt to cobble together a comprehensive approach to the issue.
Bramble, who has opened a bill file called “Immigration Reform,” told the roughly 20 people, including House Speaker Becky Lockhart, that it was a chance to pass some meaningful legislation that would avoid pitfalls encountered by Arizona when it passed a constitutionally challenged enforcement-only law.
