A leading Republican said Friday that the unfolding events in Boston underscore
the need to address "gaps and loopholes" in the nation's immigration system,
stressing that any new immigration bill should tighten screening to stop
those "who wish to do us harm."Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, addressed the
terror attack and ongoing manhunt at the start of a Capitol Hill
hearing on newly unveiled comprehensive immigration legislation. The Boston
crisis rapidly overshadowed the hearing, the first held for the major piece
of legislation. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano had been scheduled
to testify but canceled as federal law enforcement agencies were pulled
into the crime scene. Grassley, though, suggested the attacks in Boston
could influence how the immigration bill is considered."It's important for
us to understand the gaps and loopholes in our immigration system. While
we don't yet know the immigration status of the people who have
terrorized the communities in Massachusetts, when we find out, it will help
shed light on the weaknesses of our system," said Grassley, the top
Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee.The two suspects have been

signed in January when he announced his broader push for tighter gun
laws in response to a mass shooting of first-graders and staff at
Newtown, Conn.'s Sandy Hook Elementary School.The Health and Human Services
Department on Friday was beginning to ask for public comment on how
the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, passed by Congress
in 1996 and known as HIPAA, is preventing some states from reporting
to the background check system and how to address the problem. Under
HIPAA, health care providers such as hospitals may release limited information
to police, but only in certain circumstances such as when a court
is involved.Since 1968, federal law has banned the sale of guns to
those who have been deemed a danger to themselves or others, involuntarily
committed or judged not guilty by reason of insanity or incompetent to
stand trial. The background check system -- which is also used to
prevent convicted felons from buying guns -- was established under the 1993
Brady Bill.A few state agencies shared mental health records voluntarily
for years, but the Virginia Tech massacre in 2007 spurred passage of
legislation that required states to submit the records or eventually risk
losing up to 5 percent of the federal funding they receive to
fight crime.Last year's review by the Gover
