Several prominent Republican senators accused their GOP colleagues of "secretly"
negotiating a sweeping immigration overhaul, urging them to open up about
the details by next week.The letter from Republicans on the Senate Judiciary
Committee marked the latest flare-up in the GOP caucus over the immigration
plan, which has not yet been introduced. Republican negotiators have urged
their colleagues not to pre-judge the proposal, but others are getting frustrated
by the lack of hard details and concern that majority Democrats will
try to "rush" the bill through after it's introduced."We believe it is
critical that the public and the entire Senate body be given adequate
time to read and analyze the contents of any immigration bill put
forth by the majority," the senators wrote in the letter Thursday to
the four Republican negotiators: Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Arizona Sen.
John McCain, Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake, and South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham."Because
the president has failed to lead on this matter, your group has
secretly met for months and not consulted with members of the Committee
about major changes to our nation's immigration laws. The time for transparency
has come," they wrote. The lawmakers asked to be briefed by staff
no later than close of business Monday, and asked for a caucus-wide
briefing early next week "so that all members can raise concerns and

bombers and F-22 fighters to a wide array of ballistic missile defense-capable
warships. The exercises are scheduled to continue through the end of the
month.This past week, the U.S. said two of the Navy's missile-defense ships
were moved closer to the Korean peninsula, and a land-based system is
being deployed to the Pacific territory of Guam later this month. The
Pentagon last month announced longer-term plans to beef up its U.S.-based
missile defenses.While Washington is taking the North Korean threats seriously,
U.S. leaders continue to say that they have seen no visible signs
that the North is preparing for a large-scale attack.The defense official,
who was not authorized to speak publicly about the Minuteman 3 test
delay and requested anonymity, said U.S. policy continues to support the
building and testing of its nuclear deterrent capabilities. And the official
said the launch was not put off because of any technical problems.The
globe-circling intercontinental ballistic missiles make up one of the three
legs of America's nuclear arsenal. There are about 450 Minuteman 3 missiles
based in underground silos in the north-central U.S. The other two legs
of the nuclear arsenal are submarine-launched ba
