Democrats need to end this reality TV show and get to WORK. Enough with this stunt show.

What a bunch of bitches. Incompetent motherfuckers. Not sure if it’s even incompetence. They aren’t fooling anyone.

I'm sure Democrats will let us know how disappointed they are.

Looks like Durbin is throwing the towel.

Democrats: We don’t care about you enough to fix the issue, but we won’t deport you.

Republicans: We don’t like you but we will deport you.

The sad reality of both parties when it comes to our issues.

Nothing will get done. So do what you can now while you still have your work permit. Come 2023 it’ll all be gone.

The Senate parliamentarian has nixed Democrats' back-up plan for getting immigration reform into a sweeping spending bill, handing them a second setback.

Democrats had pitched parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough on legalizing millions of undocumented immigrants by making a change to the date for when undocumented immigrants within the United States can apply to adjust their legal status.

But MacDonough told Democrats that the option was a non-starter, according to a copy of the guidance obtained by The Hill. Democrats are pursuing other back-up plans with the Senate referee, according to a source familiar with Democrats' strategy.


Changing the registry date is a "weighty policy change and our analysis of this issue is thus largely the same" as Democrats' previous proposal to provide legal permanent resident status, MacDonough told Democrats in her guidance.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) said he was “disappointed” in the ruling and that it left them with “limited” options.

“[But] it still involved legal permanent residency we knew we still has a real challenge,” Durbin said about the push to get a change in the registry date.

Democrats had initially pitched MacDonough on using their spending bill to provide 8 million green cards to immigrants in four groups: Dreamers, temporary protected status (TPS) holders, agricultural and other essential workers. But she rejected that earlier this month saying that it was "not appropriate" for reconciliation, the budget process Democrats are using to bypass the filibuster on their spending bill.

Democrats then pitched to MacDonough on a change to the registry date for certain undocumented immigrants and beneficiaries of humanitarian parole programs, essentially implementing a statute of limitations for past unauthorized entries.


It currently allows undocumented immigrants who came to the United States before 1972 to apply for legal status.

According to an analysis by FWD.us, changing the registry date to 2010 — allowing any migrants who’ve been in the country since that date to apply for residency — would make around 6.7 million people eligible for legal permanent residency.
