    Undocumented immigrants are a major part of California's economy, but Washington is paralyzed on immigration reform. Tomorrow, the State Supreme Court will hear the case of a man who's not here legally, but who went to law school and passed the State Bar. Will Governor Brown sign a bill allowing undocumented immigrants to serve on juries? Also, the Best Friends Animal Society wants LA to establish a no-kill shelter system in five years. Saul Gonzalez will tell us about a new facility trying to save 1000 pets from euthanasia every year.

    On our rebroadcast of today's To the Point, President Obama says he's decided to punish Syria for the use of chemical weapons. Now he's asking support from Congress, even though both parties are sharply divided. We hear about the politics and the long-term consequences.
