House/Senate Immigration Bills Conference Committee

Now that the Senate has passed their Amnesty Bill it will go to a House/Senate conference committee to hammer out a compromise (if one is possible).

My question is, what do you think the finished product will look like? (Not what should it look like. That’s a whole different question.) More like the Senate version? The House? Somewhere in between, or no compromise at all. Take the poll at the top left of the main page. If you came here from a link from another site, go here.

If you don’t like the choices in the poll, leave your comment on this post.

UPDATE & BUMP: (Originally Posted 5/25/06 21:30)

I have been getting quite a few hits from searches for information on the House/Senate conference committee. I am guessing that many people would like to know who will serve on the conference committee.

Captain Ed Morrissey (Captain’s Quarters) had a brief interview with Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist today (6/13/06) and his first question was, “The immigration bills are now heading into conference. When will we know the composition of the committee?” Here is Senator Frist’s response:

The composition of the committee will not be announced until the committee starts its work, Senator Frist told me. He plans on making sure the committee is large and diverse on this topic. The Senate side will split equally on supporters and opponents of the Senate version of immigration reform. The House has not yet made its selections, according to Frist, so he has no idea about its composition.

I will update this when I find more information. Until then you are still welcome to take the poll and/or leave your comments.
