This morning, President Barack Obama will be addressing the nation in a speech about immigration reform. While I have a certain sense of deja vu (pretty sure he’s done this before), I’m happy to see our Commander in Chief pushing the issue back to the top of his priority list. Now, we must get Congress to do the same.
The speech will be broadcast live on the White House website and will feature an interactive live chat after the speech.
Via WhiteHouse.gov:
After the speech, we will also host a unique online engagement event – what we’re calling an “Open for Questions Roundtable” – with Cecilia Muñoz, one of the President’s closest advisors on the issue. Representatives from online media outlets examining several angles of the immigration issue will be there posing the questions on the minds of their readers – Forbes, which focuses on business and economic issues; the Examiner.com network which has citizen reporters in every state including more than 50 border state communities; CNET which focuses on the tech community; and Univision.com, which has covered the immigration debate as closely as anybody for years. And as we always do, we’ll be taking some of your questions live via Facebook as well.
Be sure to tune into the speech at 10:45 AM EST this morning and stick around for the live-chat. Let’s be sure to make our voices heard and remind the administration that we want action, not just words!
