Two recent polls indicate that a majority of adults across the nation, including many Democrats, support Arizona's new immigration law, but a third poll indicates that Latino voters in Arizona overwhelmingly oppose it.

Senate Finance Committee staff reported late Wednesday that Alan Bersin, commissioner of Customs and Border Protection, misrepresented the number of household staff he employed and failed to properly document his employees' eligibility to work in the United States.

In September 2009, President Obama nominated Bersin, a former U.S. attorney for the Southern District of California during the Clinton administration, to lead CBP. On March 27, Obama appointed Bersin to the post during a congressional recess and resubmitted his nomination to the Senate on April 21. The committee plans to hold a hearing on the nomination on Thursday.

The Senate must confirm Bersin's nomination if he is to stay in the job beyond 2011.
