Watch live: Nancy Pelosi holds the House floor over a promise for a DACA fix
 
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, a California Democrat, wants House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.) to commit to holding a vote on a legislative fix for people brought to the country illegally as children, and she has been speaking on the House floor for hours.

The Senate appears close to a two-year spending bill that would avert another government shutdown, provide tens of millions of dollars in disaster assistance and increase military and domestic spending.

Pelosi sent out a statement earlier saying she wants a commitment from Ryan to bring a bill for so-called Dreamers to the House floor in exchange for her support for the massive bipartisan spending package.

This is a waste of time and quite frankly all for show. Ryan’s word on DACA means nothing, just ask The freedom caucus.

That's what was said about McConnells promise and we're going to get a debate next week. Chill out before you pop a blood vessel.

Seriously...some people are never happy. At least there's some progress.

Good luck with that. They might was well do pinky promises at this point.

lol at the fact you think Ryan will bring a DACA bill up for a vote and betray his base :lol: Only way he would do it if it’s supported by Trump not by Nancy.Are people really this delusional to think Ryan will chose Nancy over Trump and the Freedoms Caucus?

Let me ask you this, during the last short term deal Ryan made a promise to the Freedom Caucus that if they would support a short term spending bill he would bring a DACA bill for a vote. That hasn’t happened and from what it seems like it doesn’t look like it will happen. If he broke a promise to his own precious group that he has been pleasing for the last 7 years what makes you think he will keep a Nancy Pelosi promise?
