Washington, D.C. — Angela Maria Kelley, Vice President for Immigration Policy and Advocacy at the Center for American Progress, and Marshall Fitz, Director of Immigration Policy, are available for comment on President Barack Obama’s speech on immigration in El Paso, TX, tomorrow. The president’s speech will undoubtedly focus on his administration’s achievements at boosting border security, and should provide an opportunity for him to present a careful assessment of what more is needed to ensure a functional border and sound immigration policy—something the American people overwhelmingly support, according to a recent Pew Research Center poll.
