Senate Democratic Whip Dick Durbin (Ill.), a key negotiator on immigration issues, said Thursday that a proposal being put together by a group of moderate Republicans falls short because it would not provide permanent help to immigrants known as Dreamers.

He told reporters he would not agree to a substantial increase in border-fencing funding if Republicans provide only temporary protection to immigrants who came to the country illegally at a young age and now face deportation because President Trump rescinded the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. Durbin said a temporary fix for DACA recipients “doesn’t buy much from me.
He said Republicans would need to agree to a path to citizenship for the estimated 1.8 million immigrants who would be eligible for DACA protection.
