As Suzanne Mcginnis reports for wjz, a high house version was given out to some members of the media. The white house is responding after its draft of an Immigration Reform bill was leaked to the press this weekend. The white house says its simply a back up plan. We will be prepared with our own plan if these ongoing attacks between republicans and democrats on capitol hill break down. White house sources tell cbs news this wasnt a planned leak but some republicans are skeptical. Leaks dont happen in washington by accident. This raises the question that many of us continue to wonder about does the president really want a result or does he want another chance to beat up republicans so he can get political advantage in the next election. Democrats insist the president wants to work with congress. I met with the president wednesday. He agreed to give us the space we need to come up with a bipartisan proposal. Many republicans on capitol hill tell us they were shocked to see this leaked white house draft and even more shocked that the president s plan did not require tougher border security.

We talked to senator rubio and hes fully on board with our process. Im hopeful in march we will have a bipartisan bill.
