WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Two key authors of a bipartisan bill to revamp U.S. immigration laws said on Thursday that they are hopeful most Senate Democrats and Republicans will end up supporting their White House-backed measure.
"It is very doable," Republican Senator John McCain of Arizona said of the prospects of attracting such backing. Democratic Senator Charles Schumer of New York agreed.
Speaking at a breakfast roundtable with reporters sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor, they said their aim is to muster strong support in the Democratic-led Senate to help the measure's chances in the Republican-led House of Representatives.
