In his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/the-press-office\/2013\/01\/29\/remarks-president-comprehensive-immigration-reform\">remarks<\/a> the President pointed out that we need a system under which everyone plays by the same rules: &ldquo;The question now is simple: do we have the resolve as a people, as a country, as a government to finally put this issue behind us?&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The President believes that we do, but we need the American people <a href=\"http:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/issues\/immigration\/make-your-voice-heard\">engaged to keep Washington moving forward<\/a>. That&rsquo;s why he went to Nevada, and that&rsquo;s why today, we are pleased to share that there is now a new and updated online resource center available through the White House website to help you stay on top of this critical debate. The new website, which you can find at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/issues\/immigration\">WhiteHouse.gov\/Immigration<\/a>, includes all of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/issues\/immigration\">basic resources<\/a> you&rsquo;ll need on the issue and on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/issues\/immigration\/blueprint-for-reform\">President&rsquo;s proposal<\/a> and will be your guide as we work with Congress on advancing legislation for common-sense immigration reform in the coming weeks and months.<\/p>\n<p>The new site highlights the four principles at the heart of the President&rsquo;s proposal: continuing to strengthen border security, cracking down on employers that hire undocumented workers, creating a pathway to earned citizenship and streamlining our legal immigration system. And it also includes links to the latest blog posts and videos.<\/p>\n<p>Be sure to visit the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/issues\/immigration\">new website<\/a>, but more importantly, stay involved.
