Looking forward to it..NOT!
Same reason why I'm not at all fazed by crytocurrency market volatility. Most of us are used to being on this "roller coaster".

I think the best bill would have:

A 5-10 year path to citizenship for DACA
Chain Migration limited to nuclear family+parents
A combination of merit-based immigration, with unskilled.
I agree on the parent part.

We arguing like we have a say in this!

Be GRATEFUL that US is even considering a path forward for us. No other would be so gracious. Even if I never become a citizen, this country will always have my heart!

Agreed. We have to be flexible. This can happen for us once and for all.

And if people think this is bad just imagine what a 'President Pence' will demand.

Amazing how this works. When everything is off the table Dreamers go nuts saying they’ll take anything they can. Now that they see a compromise all of a sudden “this doesn’t work for them”.

I get it. This is not the perfect bill and some people may be affected by it, but we all knew and understood from the beginning that there was not going to be a clean or even liberal bill that would pass both senate/house and then have the White House sign it. So let’s get real here.

I’m not too sure about that. Commit a violation/misdemeanor during the 10-12 year timeframe and you get deported. I’m not for criminal activities but we’re humans we make mistakes and shit happens sometimes. My point is we can’t live 10-12 years of our lives afraid to slip up and end up in jail/deportation procedure.

I can't believe some of you. We don't have any fucking bargaining power and you're asking for more. Haha. Unbelievable. You clearly don't understand the situation we find ourselves in. We need to take what we can at this point. Open your eyes Jesus christ.

We’re already living like that now and we’ll continue to live like that if nothing gets done for us.

A ticket is not going to get you deported. Now if you steal, drive drunk or kill someone then that’s on you. That’s life in general and it also has consequences whether your legal or not. If most dreamers were able to live their lives for 20+ years without any trouble, then 10-12 years is nothing.

Pretty much.

The only people trashing this are the people who want to sponsor everyone in their family and/or cover every single person. It's not going to happen. It will never happen.

Even my parents are like, 'Don't worry about us! Make sure you're covered, we came here so YOU would have a better life.'

And it's true.

You indirectly have a say through you sphere of influences. Plenty of people would be gracious towards dreamers. we are productive memebers of society and we contribute to the economy. So no I'm not going to be grateful to being held hostage by madmen fuck them

So... should I hold submitting my DACA renewal until Monday and see how it plays out? I dont wanna pay $495 and have them pass relief for us and have me pay another $x amount for a green card lol

Re: BREAKING: Trump will support a path to citizenship for DACA recipients and Dreame
 
Hopefully there is genuine good faith negotiations with this bill but I feel there is going to be a poison pill wrapped up in "interior enforcement" language that's going to be too difficult for democrats to accept.

Anyone remember that article where Trump considered ending chain migration for parents with USC kids TRICKY?

My guess is hes not really that into ending Chain migration for our parents or might be willing to compromise something for them! Its not the end folks!

Do it bro. Dont be a dumbass like me. $400 is nothing for peace of mind.

It still needs to pass negotiations with Democrats, Write a final draft, pass congress, the house, and be signed by Trump

Limit chain migration to parents, spouses, and children for everyone. Limit chain migration to spouses and children for dreamers only.

Re: BREAKING: Trump will support a path to citizenship for DACA recipients and Dreame
 
yeah, some of us got our checks already for $495.

Beg to differ. Our parents knew what they were doing when they brought us here.

Look, I want something to happen for my parents too but right now is not the time for beggars to be choosers.

I was in the good old days marching for an immigration reform, talking in universities, and immigration rallies for the dream act . I don’t understand some people in here our parents have zero sympathy for being here illegally. On the other hand we the dream act beneficiaries have a lot of sympathy with the Americans people, that’s what I saw when I did public talks about immigration.We need to come to our senses and get what we can and hopefully fight for our parents at a later time.

Just as I feared. Not only will they not include me, but also take away my sibling sponsorship that I've been waiting for since 2005 and have used to make decisions.
