A couple of weeks ago Graham went on record saying that Trump should focus on healthcare instead of DACA.

Well, his bill just failed and Graham has recently announced that they will go after Obamacare again right after they finish the debate on Taxes.

We all know Obamacare has been a 7 year fight with no apparent bipartisanship in the horizon. Taxes is not going to be an easy fight either.

With 5 months left of DACA Congress needs either get it together or the Dems need to find other ways to get our bills to the floor.

People think our biggest obstacle is the House. But my money is on the Senate.

Need to learn how to differentiate between rhetoric and what can actually be achieved. They will not revisit healthcare anymore until the next congress.

I think our biggest obstacle is McConnell. Ryan has shown willingness to get something done. McConnell hasn't expressed a shred of sympathy for Dreamers since DACA was rescinded. When he had a chance to say something, he just changed the topic to border security and immigration in general. I'm sure if he had the choice, he'll just hide in his shell to avoid addressing the DACA issue. Trump, desperate to get out of the problem he created, will still force McConnell to deal with us, but it will still be difficult having to deal with a reluctant majority leader and overcoming the 60-vote threshold.

I think inaction is most likely over the six months.
