The Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2010 (S. 3932)  was introduced in September 2010 by Senators Robert Menendez (D-NY) and Patrick Leahy (D-VT). This bill represents an important step in advancing reforms of our nation's broken immigration system. The Menendez-Leahy bill is the first comprehensive immigration bill introduced in the Senate since 2007. It includes key elements that both Republican and Democratic leaders have called for: enhanced border security, mandatory employment verification, fixes to the business and family visa systems, a legalization plan for the millions who are undocumented, and stiffer penalties on illegal immigration. This bill launches the long-needed debate about how to reform our immigration system.
