Flake to Introduce Bill with 18 billion in Border Security
 
The bill will include all previous provisions only difference is Trump would get his funding.

Quote:


The chances of an immigration bill passing this week appeared to slip away, however, after Trump rejected an earlier version last week...

White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders said Tuesday that the earlier version of the Senate immigration proposal failed to include enough money for border security.

"Specifically, one of the areas that really, really fell short was the funding for border security," Sanders said. "They only put in about one-tenth of what the Department of Homeland Security said they needed — not what they said they wanted, but what they said they needed. And this was simply a complete failure in terms of a good deal, based on what the president had laid out and based on what he wanted to see in a piece of legislation."

The senators, including Arizona Republican Jeff Flake, plan to introduce legislation Wednesday that would provide $18 billion in border-security enhancements over the next decade — including an immediate $1.6 billion down payment on President Trump's border wall.

I wonder if Trump would be ok with this, given that it's not directly for the wall.

Of course, assuming he even wants a deal and isn't just stalling like some people have said.

Trump might like ot. The number is what he wants to see. But Kelly and Miller - especially that crooked Kelly, will probably tell Trump rejects it since 10 years is forever. He will have Trump to refuse unless Congress issues something like $5B down payment, then $3B next 5 years. Total of $20B which is a bigger win. Trump can say “look! I got a great deal! My deal covers inflation too!!!”

God just do it. Durbin, Granham let’s join Flake together.

Who will bet with me on this, that eventually deal is somewhat close to $5B?

Also at the end of the video, another Republican now is willing to implicitly confirm that Trump has said something he himself wouldn’t have said in public. ��

This is going no where. The democrats will never vote for something like this, they would look weak to the tax payers and to their base. Trump no way he is getting his wall, evem if it means no protection for us. Goverment shutdown is our only option.

nvm, i see that it's over 10 years.
that's just not gonna happen.
make it 5 years and atleast an $8 billion down payment, and then you'll start to see trump coming on board.
