Immigrant Groups and R.N.C. Split on Outcome of Meeting

Mr. Steele agreed to meet with the immigration groups after they staged a brief but noisy sit-in at the R.N.C. offices on March 22.

Several advocates emerged from the closed-door session to say Mr. Steele had pledged to help find at least one more Republican sponsor for a bill being crafted by Senator Lindsey O. Graham, a Republican from South Carolina, and Senator Charles E. Schumer of New York, a Democrat.http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/03/31/immgrant-groups-and-r-n-c-split-on-outcome-of-meeting/By Julie Preston — New York Times
