John Jay, a senior vice president for the National Restaurant Association, encouraged by Senate’s immigration bill for trying to improve the "status quo".

Though he feels the current legislation still has its problems, Gay still believes that the bill improves over a 1986 version by trying to help both workers and the economy. (1:01
