Conservative House Republicans bluntly warned their leaders against any immigration compromise that would allow temporary foreign workers and assailed a Senate proposal that would open the way for illegal immigrants to earn citizenship.Representative Bob Beauprez, who is a Colorado Republican said that his fear is that if they continue down this path that the Senate has established, that they will have created the biggest magnet ever. The bipartisan authors of a Senate plan that would combine new border protections with a temporary worker program and a process for illegal immigrants to qualify for residency and eventually citizenship said they thought they were gaining support as the Senate moved deeper into its immigration fight.
