Trump: ‘Getting Close’ to DACA Deal, but Major Immigration Overhaul Less Likely - Page 3

Welcome back to the sickest ride brother

Definitely good news that he's backing off the 2000 mile border wall thing. Just add some miles to the existing sections and call it the "Great Wall".

No it hasnt

I agree. There was no need for that kind of rhetoric.

Told of Cotton’s public criticisms, Graham snapped back: “Senator Cotton can present his proposal. We presented ours. I’m not negotiating with Senator Cotton, and let me know when Senator Cotton has a proposal that gets a Democrat. I’m dying to look at it.”

Flake added that “I don’t think we’ll get all Republicans — I never thought that.”

Meanwhile, other Republicans have released a flurry of new legislation in recent days designed to placate the concerns of conservatives wary of a potential bipartisan deal.

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.), House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-Tex.) and Reps. Raúl R. Labrador (R-Idaho) and Martha McSally (R-Ariz.) on Wednesday unveiled a conservative plan that would grant dreamers an opportunity to apply for a legal residency that would be renewed every three years. Democrats and some Republicans reject such a plan.

The bill also would authorize construction of border walls and fencing; allow federal immigration and security agencies to hire at least 10,000 new agents; end the diversity lottery program; end the ability of new U.S. citizens to legally move family members into the United States; withhold federal funding from cities that refuse to help federal agencies enforce immigration laws; and intensify use of the E-Verify system to check an employee’s immigration status.

Privately, aides to GOP leaders say the bill would not be able to pass in the House.

Good thing Goodlatte’s bill is DOA.

A rational person that was actually a stable genius could have simply said "Addressing TPS was not part of the four parameters we agreed on the other day. This must be dealt with separately.". He didn't have to mock any country or call them underdeveloped.

Ah! you beat me to it. I was just going to bold that part that Goodlatte's bill is DOA.

The US doesn't owe DACA folks or Dreamers anything either. They should of tried attaching it to TPS dreamers since it seems like only DACA folks will get a deal.

Welcome back from the Gulag comrade. Glad to have you back.

I really hope that aged-out dreamers will also be included along with us DACAs. We all have been fighting together for the common goal for so long.... *fingers crossed*
