Senate at impasse over LGBT rights in immigration bill

Key Senate Democrats reportedly want President Barack Obama to help break a stalemate over the inclusion of a remedy for same-sex couples in an immigration bill. LGBT advocates are urging Democrats not to back down from Republicans who say the bill would not survive if an LGBT-rights amendment is added. 

"The idea that someone would let a bill like this die over something like this is astounding," said Maya Rupert of the National Center for Lesbian Rights.
