Democrats are planning a quick move on the ‘dreamers.’ Here’s why. - Page 2

The reason June - Trump's shadow will be long gone by then, everyone would be judging Biden's 100 days by then. Republicans have to keep their mouth shut right now because a lot of the moderate voters are backing Biden's new admin. They want Biden to be able to do things. They will absolutely hate and even leave the Republican Party if they continue to fillerbuster every single legislation. So Biden has about 100 days of honey moon with up to 1 year to do anything crazy with 51/50 slim majority. 2022 is going to be mid-term so there is not much he can do and at that point Republicans will be attacking the Democrats. So yeah, Biden has really just 1 year at most to do Anything crazy.
So he better get his immigration, climate change, healthcare, justice and police reform, education, and tax code reform done in 1 year. Sounds too much? Yeah. He has to pick 3.... guess which?

Doesn't matter. It isn't up to Minority Leader McConnell anymore. Majority Leader Schumer gets to decide the agenda now.

Yep, was think more along the lines of influencing what other senators take seriously and actually help pass instead of just doing an about face and voting no down the list.

For now, I am just lucky my wife is petitioning so either way I am safe. I hope daca-ers will get their fair share via this immigration bill soon as well. But right now, I am under DACA, hoping will get my green card by summer time via my wife, or from Biden, whichever comes first.
