They talked about the discharge petition and the two GOP proposed bills.

Same as getting struck by lighting, twice, and finding the gold pot at the end of the rainbow.

We all knew Democrats would not support any bill that they did not come up with. They would lose many votes if they did. Party > Country

Seems like they werent explicitly telling their conference to vote against the compromise.

Enough Dems need to be the real heroes and vote for this bill.

Way better than Goodlatte and the White House LIKES IT!

This is the dems' chance to show that they do care about our limbo.

I hope enough vote for it.

Its not about giving Trump his wall. Its about doing the right thing

They should just appropriate the funds and make Trump actually take the steps. Then the dems can just blame the republicans for the wall for years to come

This. Not one person is gonna vote Republican instead of Democrat because the Dems voted for the wall. And And protecting the Dreamers will counteract the effect of the capitulation to the wall with regards to voter energy and turnout.

Bro, they won't even support a bill they come up with. In Dec 2010, the Dream Act was 5 votes short (already passed the house). Five Democrats voted against the legislation: Kay Hagan of North Carolina, Mark Pryor of Arkansas, Ben Nelson of Nebraska and both Montana Democrats, Jon Tester and Max Baucus. In addition, Sen. Joe Manchin didn't show up to the vote! We needed 5 votes, 6 Dems screwed us. Never forget!

Guess not. But some might capitulate. This one is not as bad as the initial proposal that trump had.

Re: House Democratic leaders hold a news conference.
 
We are fucked folks. If not by Republicans, by Democrats. Those assholes dont want to help us at all. I mean why would they? As long as the immigration issue is alive, politicians do not have to do any real work, and they get something to talk about during their campaigns.

I already did, Democrats. Why would republicans vote for a bill their constituents did not support and one that their leadership doesn’t support? The democrats however had no excuse! They had cover from their party and their constituents.

Obama gave us daca to win the elections. Reps trying to legalize us to win the elections. It ain't about us

I see this debate al the time. You don’t need a college degree to be successful but it sure does help when you move to another place. I could move anywhere in the US and find a job right away that will pay me really good.

In the sphere of politics, morality is at the lower end of priority. All the silly bickering I've seen between fellow DREAMers, arguing for one side over the other, is nothing but an exercise in futility.

A politician may begin with enthusiasm to do what is 'moral'; however, once in power, in order to retain that grip, they need to do what they need to do to be in control. Don't fool yourselves that they are dedicated to help you. There are outliers, but they are a rarity. It's a dog eat dog world and as my boy Niccolo Machiavelli once famously said

"It is better to be feared than loved"


Let that sink in.

Why hasn't Durbin come forward in support of the bill?

What bill? What we’ve seen so far is just a draft/outline. We don’t even know if it’s final.

Pianoswithoutfaith 06-14-2018 01:14 PM

Re: House Democratic leaders hold a news conference.
 
There’s a bill?!? I keep reading that and I see is a draft that’s up for reviewing and comment
