More than 30 senators join push for immigration deal
More than 30 senators — about a third of the entire Senate — met late Wednesday afternoon to discuss the outlines of an immigration deal before a March 5 deadline for hundreds of thousands of immigrants facing deportation.
The senators huddled shortly before President Trump announced he would be willing to create a 10- to 12-year-long path to citizenship for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program recipients in exchange for $25 billion to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. The White House announced it would unveil a more detailed framework for immigration reform on Monday. http://thehill.com/homenews/senate/3...migration-deal |

I really like how Susan Collins has come out of nowhere to be involved in the immigration talks! They brokered the agreement in her office to end the shutdown. Lisa Murkowski is also in the mix!
Go ladies! |
Re: More than 30 senators join push for immigration deal
One GOP aide called the meeting “inconsequential.”
And even lawmakers at the center of the immigration talks are beginning to talk about a two- or three-year “patch” or “extension” to keep DACA program recipients protected from deportation but without a long-term solution or path to citizenship. http://thehill.com/homenews/senate/3...migration-deal Umm hopefully, Trump’s support of a pathway kills this idea of a temporary patch. |

Senate isn't the biggest issue... we can gain the support. But House is where the real fight is.
