Obama Discusses Immigration Reform in Iowa

Iowa is still one of the most important swing states in this year's presidential election, and with them coming close and closer, the presidential candidates are pulling out all the stops.



According to an article released on allmediany.com, President Barack Obama has been speaking out quite a bit, both on and off the record. A recent statement was released by the President discussing his immigration reform plans upon re-election.

A recent statement was released by the Obama campaign directly addressing the immigration issues he plans to tackle and condemning the Republican campaign.

Obama expressed confidence that immigration reform will be next year's first battle upon re-election. He also took notice of the Republican's alienation of the Latino community and their issues regarding immigration laws.

The statement included a direct thanks to the Latino community for their support. The thanks was originally not a public statement issued by the President, but were eventually released to the public in light of criticism.

Obama has previously taken on discussions of immigration reform, and addressed specifically the Iowa Latino community. He openly credited the Latino community for their disdain for the Republican campaign's methods and views.

Obama has long depended upon the Latino community for quite a bit of its support. They made up a good part of his support during the 2008 election, and since. 

This interview has been released in light of the upcoming debates as an attempt to gain that last bit of support that will be needed for the president that he may need to gain the win for this year.
