Republicans need to solve this issue before the midterms. Having Dreamers losing their jobs and being deported during the campaign will be a disaster for them

The Senate Judiciary Committee had planned to hold a hearing on DACA on Wednesday but postponed the meeting at the request of the Trump administration, according to a congressional aide who was not authorized to discuss the meeting. Mr. Goodlatte said this week that he would hold no DACA hearings until border security legislation is drafted.

Instead, this week the House will take up the Criminal Alien Gang Member Removal Act, aimed at MS-13 and other immigrant gangs, and the Legal Workforce Act to expand electronic worker verification efforts. Mr. Goodlatte said he would follow those bills with legislation dealing with immigrant agricultural workers.

Goodlate needs to fuck off

We are happy to have discussions with anybody who wants to talk about what we need to do with DACA, but I would say DACA is at the end of that list, not at the beginning,” said Mr. Goodlatte in an interview. “We can’t fix the DACA problem without fixing all of the issues that led to the underlying problem of illegal immigration in the first place.”

Goodlatte isn't in the Senate, so what he does doesn't have a ramification there.

there wasn't DACA in 2009-2010, the field has changed.

As mentioned before, DACA put us on the map like never before; Obama's policy has made us a de facto political reality like never before, as something more tangible and real.

The situation is incomparably better than in 2010, when most people and politicians scarcely knew or cared about who we were.
