Major GOP Donor Backs Immigration Reform

Paul Singer has donated to the National Immigration Forum

|

Republican mega-bundler Paul Singer has quietly gotten involved in the fight for immigration reform, making a six-figure donation to a group involved in marshaling conservatives to support an overhaul of federal laws, POLITICO has learned.

Singer, the hedge fund billionaire who has become one of the Republican Party's most prolific donors and bundlers over the past seven years, made the donation to the National Immigration Forum. The group has been focusing, in part, on getting support from the business community, faith leaders and law enforcement for the reform effort.
