"Senate Democrats seem very unlikely to back a package that includes $25 billion for border security and no pathway to citizenship for Dreamers. It would represent a significant step back from a deal put together by centrist senators from both parties this week, though that effort also failed to win a supermajority of 60 votes."

This makes me mad. Oh, it would represent a step back? So what? Obviously we all want permanent relief, but after five months of nothing it just seems impossible. If people get indefinite DACA, then they'll have more certainty. No one did their best to make sure relief was achieved, but now everyone is worried about how this is going to look. In the meantime, we are here, waiting and desperately trying to figure out what to do. At least getting permanent DACA would just mean going back to how our lives were five months ago. Does it suck that we probably won't be getting permanent status? Of course it does, but at least we can go back to how our lives were before all this bullshit started.
