 WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush says no one should discount his ability to get a new immigration law from Congress, despite his struggles with lawmakers in the past year.
"Don't underestimate me," Bush said as the Senate readied for a showdown over the issue.
Bush is insisting that Congress send him a bill that not only strengthens U.S. borders, but also allows foreigners to have a guest permit that lets them work temporarily in the United States in low-paying jobs. "It's a humane way to deal with people who are making a contribution to our economy," he said.
