Eh...I lost hope in Congress a long time ago, so I think Dems will probably get nothing out of this shut down. Trump just announced he will not discuss immigration until the government opens again, but after this shut down is over Dems will be able to say they shut down the govt for DACA and that is why people need to vote for more Democrats, etc, etc. Just renew your EAD like everyone else is doing for 2 more years of peace and try to find a citizen to marry.

Unfortunately, I agree with you. Republicans and Trump don't care. They are stubborn as fuck. They will not discuss immigration until the government opens again.

government can't be opened until Dems agree to it so they have the better hand. They're standing with us.

Anything can happen though..meanwhile I'm sending my renewal app

Honestly, it took so damn long for the democrats to get a back bone and shut it down. I'm praying that they don't cave in and accept a less than mediocre bill in hopes of negotiations.

Well it's definitely a good thing that Harry Reid retired. Spineless asshole would've folded by now.

well...that shutdown didnt last long. Dems dont have any balls. Just gave the people a one day furlough and back to business as usual for a mere promise from Majority leader to bring up the bill. He promised the same thing last time! lol.
