WASHINGTON - JUNE 27: Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) (L) and Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-MA) laugh during an immigration reform rally and news conference on Capitol Hill June 27, 2006 in Washington, DC. When asked why the GOP House leadership was calling the Senate's version of the immigration reform legislation the "Reid-Kennedy" bill, McCain said it didn't matter. "They could call it a banana," he said. The National Immigration Forum hosted the conference with business, religious, union, conservative, and immigrant advocacy leaders to call for comprehensive immigration reform. Many who participated in the event said the planned hearings across the country by GOP members of the House is a stalling tactic used to turn the immigration issue into a political football.
