Will the party shift in Congress affect immigration reform?

As we all now know, the Democrats have won majority control of both the US House of Representatives and the Senate.  Last year the House passed a restrictionist only immigration bill.  Earlier this year, the Senate passed a more comprehensive immigration bill that included a guest worker program and other forms of relief.  Before either of these can become law, the two houses of the legislature must meet to reconcile the differences between the two bills and present a final version for the President to either sign or veto.  Unfortunately, for reasons of politics and elections amongst others, this has not yet come to pass.  Overall, Democrats have been more willing to work on the immigration issue in a positive and less restrictionist manner.  Additionally the President has shown great interest in passing an immigration bill that includes guest worker provisions amongst other real life, realistic solutions to our country's immigration issues.  Perhaps the recent change in the balance of power in Congress will bring this issue back to the forefront.
