Illinois Business Leaders Want ‘Common Sense’ Immigration Reform

A new group of business leaders wants to recruit 300 CEOs and 1,000 small businesses in Illinois to push for "common sense" bipartisan immigration reform. The Illinois Business Immigration Coalition includes leaders from Peoria-based Caterpillar Inc. as well as Motorola Solutions Inc., the University of Illinois, trade groups and immigration-rights advocates. It's forming as lawmakers in Washington get ready to hammer out details of a potential immigration law overhaul.
