Dean Johnson Comments on Immigration Reform for Belfast Telegraph

Dean Kevin R. Johnson commented for the Belfast Telegraph on the occasion of President Obama's visit to Ireland on the prospects for immigration reform under the Obama administration.  Dean Johnson said that while he believes President Obama "feels strongly about the need to treat immigrants fairly and equitably," it is probably unlikely that significant reforms will be enacted "until we see a full recovery from the recession."
