Jeff Sessions

Internet Address Dept: In his weekly radio and Internet address, Obama said Saturday that he's talking with Republicans about ways to replace the automatic spending cuts that took effect March 1. He says immigration reform and gun control are other areas where he's hopeful Democrats and Republicans can find common ground, according to Calgary Herald. In the Republican address, Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama says he's worried that Senate Democrats will unveil a budget next week that won't curb the nation's debt. He's insisting that lawmakers balance the federal budget. He says even though unemployment fell to 7.7 per cent last month, expanding the economy is still his top priority. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
