美国移民法将在六个月内进行改革

President Barack Obama has said US immigration reform could be achieved within six months, in an interview with Spanish-language TV channel Telemundo.

美国总统奥巴马在接受波多黎各西班牙语电视台采访时称，美国移民法改革将会在六个月内完成。

The president said reform should pass in 2016 and he would put "everything" into securing a deal even sooner.

Obstacles to a deal were political rather than technical, Mr Obama added.

The comments come the day after Mr Obama backed comprehensive immigration reform, and after a group of senators unveiled a similar plan on Monday.

Correspondents say the focus on immigration reflects the growing influence of Hispanic voters.

'Clear pathway'

"I can guarantee that I will put everything I have behind it," Mr Obama told Telemundo, one of two Spanish-language networks he spoke to on Wednesday.

The president also said he would work with all politicians to achieve reform, including Florida Senator Marco Rubio, a Republican.

Mr Obama's plan, unveiled at a secondary school in Las Vegas, Nevada on Tuesday, reflects a blueprint he rolled out in 2011.

But while he applauded the Senate effort - put together by a group of four Democrats and four Republicans - the president also warned that if Congress fails to take action on immigration, the White House would write legislation of its own and insist that lawmakers vote on it.
