WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama, under pressure to keep a campaign promise to revamp US immigration policy, embraced a "promising, bipartisan framework" on Thursday offered by two senior US senators.

Obama said the proposal by Democrat Charles Schumer and Republican Lindsey Graham, which features a new identification card for US citizens and legal immigrants who want a job, "can and should be the basis for moving us forward."

In an article posted online by The Washington Post, Schumer and Graham wrote "our immigration system is badly broken" and outlined a four-point plan to fix it.
