Senate immigration bill would cut illegal entries by 25 percent
CBO analysis estimates the bill reduces unauthorized residents by about 2.5 million over 20 years, boosts growth and lowers deficits, but notes some provisions could inadvertently raise visa overstays. Schumer aide counters that the plan's tracking and employer penalties likely yield even lower illegal immigration than projected.

Fed signals slower bond purchases as economy improves
The Federal Reserve indicated a move toward tapering its 85 billion dollar monthly bond buys later this year with reductions in measured steps and possibly ending by mid next year. Bernanke compared the reduction to easing a car’s gas pedal, asserting fundamentals look better while keeping rates near record lows until unemployment falls further. Investors jolted as stocks and bonds fell, with the Dow dropping and the 10 year yield rising. The Fed left purchases intact for now but projected an improved outlook and reduced downside risk to jobs, while reiterating a long run aim to spur borrowing and investment.
