If 100 people cant agree on something most people support, how the hell are 435 (representatives in the house) people going to agree? lol...

It looks like demagogues on the left and the right win again on immigration.

I’m disappointed with today’s outcome in the Senate. I supported all four proposals, including the legislation backed by President Trump. Unfortunately, they all failed to reach the sixty votes necessary to move forward.

I’m very proud of the bipartisan effort (Rounds-King) that would have given President Trump his border wall system money and created a pathway to citizenship for DACA recipients. This two-pillar approach is the best way to deal with phase one of immigration reform. Receiving fifty-four votes for this construct was encouraging. We are not there yet, but we will keep working to build our numbers.

Looking ahead, I continue to believe there is a deal to be had on immigration that gives President Trump many of his priorities on the border and relief for the DACA-eligible population.

Disappointed the Senate has been unable to pass a permanent #DACA fix & do more to secure the border, but failure is not an option. I’ve filed a temporary fix extending #DACA for 3 yrs & providing $7.6 billion for #BorderSecurity. Let’s give it a vote asap

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

But is Turtle going to let them vote on that? This should have been the last bill today in case this very situation happened, but Republicans were not negotiating in good faith.

I hope the Supreme Court votes to not hear the case and let it work its way through the appellate courts. They can stall it.

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

I appreciate his effort, but this extension bill is already dead and there is no way the House will take it without Trump’s approval.

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

Fuck, Game Over.

Time to turn in those Company transfer requests. We are fucked here.

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

I said it many times and I will say it again for our wishful thinkers around here. Trump holds all the cards to this debate (although it appears he has no clue on what he really wants) - if we can get him onboard, DACA can pass the house and senate and sign into law tomorrow. If people insist on ignoring him, then we are 100% going nowhere for the next three years.

I can't believe I went from looking at houses with my SO, to having to let him go after 10 years, so we can find people to marry. Back to my mom's house I go.

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

Just no. Why do they think we would want an extension? Why do they think 3 more years will make a difference?

Good thing my step dad at the time had filed for 245(I) back in February of 2001 and I was a beneficiary. Looks like I will just apply for sponsorship through work.

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

Since when do we decide what we get lol.

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

??? Wait lol it's not over

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

Because right now we have NOTHING. What's so hard to understand? The amendments failed, people are out of status, and others are rushing to get renewals in.

Either way, the likelihood of it getting a vote is none. But right now, we're not in any position to turn anything down.

Christ.

It is

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

NO ONE except Jeff Flake and Durbin tweeted about the results so far. Unbelievable.

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

People over here crying about us getting an “extension” little do they know we ain’t getting that either :lol: :lol:

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

Why wont they keep talking to come up with a compromise? Dont they technically have until March 5 to come up with something?

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

Anyone know what is Senator Durbin's next step?

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

This blows man. They could of done something for DACA and find a permanent solution. It sucks for my siblings that are still under DACA.

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

We will continue the fight. LOL

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

Well a judge overturned that decision so DACA is still alive. (Creating no sense of urgency for the politicians imo)

Remove the f#cking 10 yr ban for all childhood arrivals. It's like these f#ckers wont help us stay and they will not help up leave either. Wtf!!

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

I know. Durbin should just mot give a fuck and attach the Dream Act to the omnibus bill. 17 years and still no solution. It is not Dreamers age, it is not we are American, but in paper, it is just the racists in Congress will never vote to help and Trump clearly does not give a shit either.

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

I am thinking we may not have been picked by the best of the leaders. :shock:

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

Let’s look at the positives, we all still have our DACA, they could have easily been terminated at the beginning of January of last year. We’re all still benefiting from renewals as well, yes today was a rough day, but we still have enough time to make other plans.

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

Yes, get those renewals in right away.

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

What's stopping them from rejecting all pending renewals when SCOTUS rules against the lawsuits?
What's stopping them from purposely delaying renewals past expiration?
What's stopping them from using our information to deport us in two years?

USCIS is being run by a person who just torched the bipartisan immigration bill this morning. I'm not sure that we know. If you are betting on humanity - you have not learnt your lessons from all of the failed DACA/DA votes.

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

That's what I am looking right now. Also happy to be in a healthy relationship that I can have a fix for myself, but I cannot be selfish and quit this fight. I refuse to be one of those "I got mine, screw you". I am glad to have a possible fix, but I will be on the ship until the end.

For some reason I am still hopeful, we have a lot of news on us, hopefully Trump really wants his Wall and compromises some.

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

Stop saying get renewals in

Everyone did it already

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

A lot o f prople don't have Daca - some have EADs pending court cases, some TPS that expires, and the rest are left out by age caps. We need Dream Act.

Re: Our lives are in hands of 100 people starting at 2:30
 

We are tired, Beans. The uncertainty is killing everything, and there's no end in sight. :cry:
