Democrats weigh overturning Senate parliamentarian’s ruling on immigration

WASHINGTON — Senate Democrats are signaling a new willingness to consider how to get around a potentially adverse ruling by a key Senate official on whether they can include immigration policy in their social spending and climate bill.
Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough is expected to rule shortly on whether Democrats’ third immigration proposal — which would provide work permits and deportation protection to immigrants in the country illegally — conforms with Senate rules required to pass the package. She rejected two earlier immigration provisions.

Senate Majority Whip Richard J. Durbin (D-Ill.), a longtime proponent of immigration reform, said he would support overruling the parliamentarian if she rules against their latest proposal.

“I’d vote for that,” Durbin said in a brief interview. “I hope it doesn’t come to that.”

Time to pressure democrats on the Senate to do the right thing, if Republicans take over more than likely DACA will disappear... don't forget that.

Biggest obstacle as usual: Manchin

@ellengilmer
Manchin again says he wouldn’t vote to overrule parliamentarian on immigration

All bark, no bite.

Not happening

Manchin killed the idea already... several times

I love how he’s cool with overruling it now when it’s just bandaid parole. Where was this enthusiasm when the path to citizenship was on the table.

Lets look like were trying phase ... I'm over this B.S

This.

Good luck with that!
