Conservative activists meet in DC to talk immigration reform
Today more than 250 conservative activists are meeting in Washington, D.C. for a bipartisan national strategy session held by the National Immigration Forum.
Richard Land, public policy chief for the Southern Baptist Convention, responds during an interview in Nashville, Tenn. in this Sept. 28, 2006, file photo. Prominent evangelical leaders who spent the summer hoping Fred Thompson would emerge as their favored GOP presidential contender now are experiencing doubts as the former Tennessee senator begins his long-teased campaign. Land said Thompson's position is consistent with the former senator's support for limited federal government and giving power to the states.
