President Barack Obama speaks during the "SelectUSA Investment Summit" on Thursday, Oct. 31, 2013 in Washington. Obama encouraged international businesses and investors to bring new investment and jobs to the United States.

President Barack Obama on Wednesday will meet with faith leaders to “discuss the importance of taking action to pass commonsense immigration reform,” the White House said.

The meeting is scheduled to be held at 10:50 a.m. ET in the Oval Office and Vice President Joe Biden is also expected to attend.

Obama and Biden discussed immigration reform with business leaders last week.
