Tom Tancredo is generally considered the most anti-immigrant member of Congress. Here is his proposal for immigration reform.
Other anti-immigration (or at least anti-illegal immigration) groups include:
California Coalition for Immigration Reform
Numbers USA
Federation for American Immigration Reform

The most pro-immigrant member of Congress is perhaps Keith Ellison, the only Muslim in Congress. Here is his proposal about immigration.
Here are some immigrant rights activists:
Immigrant Solidarity Network
American Friends Service Committee (the Quakers)
American Civil Liberties Union

Finally, I can't resist pointing out again that my governor is an immigrant. I didn't vote for him, (living out of state I only vote for federal offices anyway) but we could have done a lot worse. If you go to his website you'll notice that he doesn't say anything about immigration, probably because immigration is a federal responsibility and state governments have nothing to do with it. And as an immigrant he can't run for president anyway.
