  1. Another side of illegal immigration

    Denise Panaligan, a UCLA sophomore, didn't tell her mother where she was headed Wednesday morning. She knew that if she told the truth, her mother would worry.

  5. The forgotten side of the immigration debate

    Recently, I returned home from a three-week stay in Guanajuato, Mexico. I lived with a gracious Mexican family, took Spanish classes and had the chance to immerse myself in Mexican culture. Mexican society was beautiful and vibrant — full of ideas, art and religion. Needless to say, the crude stereotypes of drug cartels and kidnappings were hardly relevant or applicable to my experience, or the experience of anyone I met.

  11. Md. petition reform: a tempest in a teapot

    Twenty years after the last time Maryland voters weighed in on a law passed by the General Assembly, they got the chance to do it three times in 2012, with referendums on in-state tuition for some illegal immigrants, same-sex marriage and a gerrymandered congressional district map designed to deliver one more seat to the Democrats. The powers that be in Annapolis are not thrilled — Gov. Martin O'Malley proclaimed it "a little too easy" to put a law on the ballot — and now several of them have introduced legislation to make the task harder. Though Maryland's recent experiences with petitions have exposed some flaws with the process, lawmakers should think twice before declaring referendums to be a dangerous trend that needs to be curtailed.

  13. Republicans rediscover the virtues of immigration reform

    In my <a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-mcmanus-column-republican-retreat-20130127,0,6893665.column">Sunday column</a>, I suggested that Republicans in Congress have begun to evolve in a more pragmatic, less ideological direction after their losses in last year&rsquo;s election. As evidence, I noted that House Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) backed off last week from a threatened showdown with President Obama over the federal government&rsquo;s debt ceiling.

  19. Filibuster reform can't wait

    Two months after American voters made it clear they want effective government &mdash; and two years before the U.S. Senate's next opportunity to reform its broken rules &mdash; that "do nothing" chamber appears poised to fix its filibuster. In its present warped form, it permits a single, unaccountable member, without even taking the floor or speaking, to obstruct both debate and voting on critical legislation affecting 315 million Americans.
