In a lengthy house editorial Sunday, The New York Times ed. board summarizes the "good," the "bad" and the "awful" aspects of the compromise immigration bill that made national news last Thursday. The Times calls for the bill to be rejected in its current form:

"
It is the nation’s duty to welcome immigrants, to treat them decently and give them the opportunity to assimilate. But if it does so according to the outlines of the deal being debated this week, the change will come at too high a price: The radical repudiation of generations of immigration policy, the weakening of families and the creation of a system of modern peonage within our borders."
