Senator John B. Breaux, Democrat of Louisiana.

Mr. Breaux said changes in immigration law, traditionally supported by Democrats, might stand a better chance. "I think something like that could possibly pass," he said. "What are we going to tell our people, that we're not going to do it because it's not enough?"

Yet the immigration plan, which would create a guest worker program giving temporary legal status to millions of illegal workers, is drawing opposition from some conservative Republicans, among them Senator Trent Lott of Mississippi, the former Republican leader.

"I have a problem with how he wants to deal with illegal aliens," Mr. Lott said. "They say it's not amnesty, but it smells like amnesty. I want to know exactly how that's going to work." nytimes.com
