Internet Business Opportunity (AXcess News) New York - The prayers of many Americans that the Senate Immigration Reform Bill will be killed by Republicans in House of Representatives may be answered in the next few days -- perhaps hours.

The Senate is expected to consider the House bill during the week of June 26. Most GOP lawmakers prefer total, permanent repeal of estate taxes, but after the Senate defeat of that prospect, the legislators are looking for common ground with a good number of Democrats sympathetic to some sort of estate tax reform.

The House Republican leadership says they will begin a fresh series of hearings on immigration next month.

During floor debate, Ranking Member Charles B. Rangel ( N.Y.) questioned why House Republicans would want to pass AMT relief as a separate bill, rather than including it in a tax reconciliation measure that is protected from amendments in the Senate. Rangel predicted the House AMT bill is on a "road to nowhere" and would stall after House passage.

During the previous debates in the late 1990s, it was clear that the bills the House passed would die in the Senate. But in April, the Senate passed a sweeping reform bill written by Sens. John McCain ( Ariz.) and Russell D. Feingold ( Wis.). The prospect that a reform bill might actually become law caused some House members to reconsider their support for the movement.

year politics will jam much legislation, pressed to reject the four because they are so popular, said House Ways and Means Chairman William Thomas ( Calif.). "These are the kind of bills that can break the logjam in the Senate, " asserted Thomas. The House has patiently awaited action by the Senate on a variety of bills including foreign sales corporation repeal and energy policy, and the tax measures may serve as vehicles to address the unfinished legislation.

The Senate bill also would allow illegal immigrants who have resided in the United States from two to five years to apply for a guest worker program.

Many conservative Republicans, especially those in the House, said the Senate's approach amounted to "amnesty" and vociferously oppose any legalization program before border security has been strengthened.

Cnn Money As evidence, House Republicans point to the victory by Rep. Brian Bilbray in a special election in California earlier this month. Bilbray ran against the approach favored by President Bush and the Senate and argued that the borders must be secured first. His opponent lost the election partly because she was recorded telling illegal aliens they didn't need "papers" to vote.
