To summarize it, both sides (Rs and Ds) want to protect Dreamers, but obviously some of the people that vote Republican do not want us here. With that being their base, Democrats plan to lump the spending bill, CHIP, military spending, Dream Act, and funding for Veterans together into one big thing that can help deflect some of the heat Republicans will get from their base. Basically allowing Republicans to say "Oh, well, you see I had no choice to vote on this bill" and that will keep their base happy and we hopefully get Dream Act. I hope it works.
