A Top House Democrat Offers a Path to a Deal Ending Shutdown Fight - Page 6

Are you guys aged out?

Bump.

Also, stop using low-hanging fruit like Dreamers and TPS holders to not address the other 9 MILLION undocumented workers and families.

I dont think the 9Million will get immigration relief because:

1. They are seen as law breakers while we are seen as Kids who didnt choose to be here.
2. Republicans dont want anymore chain migration.

This is like demanding Greencards, for the hondouran that just snuck in a week ago, while you've, and others have been waiting patiently since the 80s.

at it again huh?

Honestly no one cares about point #1. It's a pity point. People care more that Dreamers are in some good tax paying industries and we'll fund Medicare and SS. in a few years that whole oh they're young, it's not their fault point will get worn out

You are using weasel words by pointing out a nobody that doesn't exist. You still haven't refuted my point.

Honestly, the these are DACA kids is still very valid and a point used until very recently. The fact that we may contribute some to Medicare and SS, is just a happy coincidence but you can see that barely anyone uses this point. Honestly, who even uses that point other than the extreme left?

I got three more points.
3. Those 9 million snuck in after reagans amnesty was passed in hopes of getting something too, or at least of finding work.

4. The nation needs more military recruits, and the DACA pool is a great untapped resource. Hondourans with a week in the nation are more loyal to their homelands, than they are to the states compared to Dreamers who have spent 30 loyal years in this nation.They can't stop scribbling their country code all over the place. In fact, such behavior has already led to a few of them getting deported, since it was assumed to be gang related. I'm however, not going to sit here and point fingers of homeland-love while sporting a Mexican flag for the past year on my signature and a Mexican banknote as my avatar. Some love for your homeland is fine, but to make it a central part of who you are while trying to immigrate to a new nation is too much of a stretch even for me. I am, Mexican-American, and that's the way it shall be. Why because I, like many of our fellow Dreamers and Aged-out, have absorbed the values and customs of our nation and blended them into a uniquely Latin-American experience to the benefit of our homeland, AMERICA.

5. This attempt to stretch the Dreamer deal and make it cover all the 11million will only serve to sink the deal for Dreamers as the 9million left over are part of the unthinkable deals. Even with their income to Medicare and SSN, the right doesn't want them in any shape or form. Meanwhile the right is okay with extending DACA to some degree, and potentially a permanent deal.

If they don’t even wanna pass something for Dreamers what makes you think they wanna give a reform for 9 million.

At least dreamers didn’t choose to come to they US, they were forced.

Well, that seems to be the way things are headed.
Did you see the news shows this morning? Dem leadership and talking heads are focusing on a comprehensive deal as part of the shutdown negotiations. The deal always included Dreamer legislation on its own right, so is completely doable.

It's time.

as an aged out dreamer I am hoping that we are included if anything passes and I can finally put my accounting/economics degree to use

Sorry to hear you are an aged out Dreamer. If you haven’t already, definitely go for the CPA! Keep your head up. I am sure a solution is coming very soon for all Dreamers. I’ve worked at small CPA firms both when I had no permit and after I got one. The experience will count towards the CPA so see if you can connect with a small firm like that. If you’d like to talk further you can definitely PM.
