The parliamentarian seemed very focused on the essential worker provision:
Quote:
The current proposal would waive the relevant sections of the INA,
and create a new class of alien who is eligible for adjustment of status, including a wholly new
category of persons called “essential critical infrastructure workers” (derived from a 16 page list
that covers 18 major categories and over 220 sub-categories of employment). The provision also
includes conditions of ineligibility for these applicants along with waivers of many of those
disqualifiers at the discretion of DHS. It is by any standard a broad, new immigration policy.

I'd say removing the essential worker provision and just focusing on the DACA could probably pass the Byrd Rule? I think you can justify converting an EAD to a LPR.
