    US Senate prepares for divisive immigration debate - ABS CBN News, Philippines
    Frist's tough approach mirrors a bill passed by the US House of Representatives. Neither includes a guest-worker program or offers a way to legalize the status of illegal workers.

    Legalizing some of the 12 million undocumented workers is supported by union and business groups. Businesses also back Bush's guest-worker proposal to help fill jobs that Americans do not want or are unable to perform.
