on immigration: "I've been an immigrant rights activist my whole life, 20 years before coming to Congress, such an important issue for me as one of only 14 naturalized citizens, & I had really hoped & been pushing for immigration as part of this bill..." (1)

: "...and I have brought it up to the President multiple times, and what we have come to is that if there are senators who will not overrule the parliamentarian, then - I don't think that it's going to be possible to put it in." (2)

@mitchellreports
@RepJayapal
: "I think I was working on trying to get agreement on that to overrule the parliamentarian. But at this point, what I believe is that we should vote on the things that the parliamentarian is likely to include." (3)

Andrea Mitchell
@mitchellreports
@RepJayapal
: "There are options on the table. I don't understand why those options weren't taken to the parliamentarian before for her to rule or why it's taking so long. That is, that's a Senate thing, not a House thing." (4)

Andrea Mitchell
@mitchellreports
@RepJayapal
: "And I do understand my House colleagues’ desire to not vote on something that, that the parliamentarian is going to rule out of order. At the same time, we just have to get these two bills done." (5)

Andrea Mitchell
@mitchellreports
@RepJayapal
: "So whatever the resolution is there, I want real change for immigrants in some way, shape or form. If it's not going to be in this bill because Senator Manchin won't, you know, won't do it or whoever won't do it in the Senate..." (6)

@mitchellreports
@RepJayapal
: "...then let's get the administration to commit to a set of executive actions that will bring relief to immigrants, because we can’t continue to pretend like we support immigrants and then do nothing to actually reward them for their frontline essential work." (7)

Andrea Mitchell
@mitchellreports
@RepJayapal
: "So that's what we're trying to work through right now. I do think we should have sent all these options to the parliamentarian and had her rule, but for whatever reason, in the Senate, that decision was, was different." ( #AMRstaff

@SenatorDurbin
says they’re going to Senate Parliamentarian tomorrow with immigration plan C

I hate Dick Durbin.

Dick (was) a good guy, his speeches were emotionally impactful back in the days when I was too naive to believe that the American people are good.

Lmao!!!!!! THEY HAVENT EVEN SUBMITTED IT YET?!?! WHAT THE FUCK

To formally submit they needed to wait for CBO score, which they only received late last week.
