Bush seeks quick funding plan to revive immigration bill
Key senators tentatively back a revived immigration bill aided by President Bush's support for 4.4 billion dollars to secure borders and enforce laws at the work site. The plan aims for about 60 votes to defeat a filibuster with multiple amendments allowed, while Bush faces concerns about enforcement and citizenship provisions amid intense debate.

Democrats stall on renewables energy bill in Senate
Senate Democrats faced Republican resistance as they sought a vote on a bill mandating utilities to source 15 percent of electricity from renewables by 2020. The measure, backed by sponsor Jeff Bingaman, aims to cut greenhouse emissions by about 7 percent, but fell short of the 60 votes needed. Opponents warned some regions could not meet the target and prices might rise, particularly in the South.
