This project is part of USC's summer journalism workshop for high school students.

The public thought that the immigration reform bill was going to be passed by the House this summer after it glided through the Senate last month, but now the Republican-led House of Representatives is on a five-week recess, and the public is going to have to continue waiting for comprehensive immigration reform.

The summer recess ends September 9th and sources say that the chances of having the immigration reform bill passed this year are slim, but possible.

As a team of high school journalists from across the world, we decided to look at different districts in America and how they view the proposed immigration reform. Many districts see it as one of the main problems that communities are facing, while others say issues like the economy, cross walk safety, education and texting while driving are more important

We called hundreds of businesses to get their opinion on immigration in their community and asked how they feel their district representative was handling the issue. We then took the search a step further and talked to our city council members and mayors to get their opinion on the matter.

Finally, we tried to get in touch with our congressmen to get a few quotes.
