Watch President Obama Describe His Proposal for Common Sense Immigration Reform

We need to create a fair and effective immigration system that lives up to our heritage as a nation of laws and a nation of immigrants.

And for the first time in many years, there is bipartisan support for comprehensive immigration reform. But action must follow.

"It’s time to fix a system that’s been broken for way too long."

-President Barack Obama
