Senate pivots to stopgap 'Dreamers' deal
 
Quote:
The Senate is weighing a short-term fix for "Dreamers" as lawmakers struggle to break a stalemate that has stalled the chamber's debate.
Quote:
Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) is in talks with Sen. Heidi Heitkamp (D-N.D.) about a plan to tie a three-year extension of protections for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipients with roughly $7.6 billion in border security.
Quote:
Passing a years-long immigration stopgap is no one’s first choice for restoring protections from the Obama-era program, which the Trump administration announced it was ending last year. Democrats largely refused to touch the idea during the Senate’s debate, while GOP Sen. Marco Rubio (Fla.) referred to it as “Plan Z.
Quote:
GOP Sens. John Thune (R-S.D.), Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) and Rob Portman (R-Ohio) have offered a bill to provide legal protections for current DACA recipients. But it could struggle to win Democratic support because it includes tens of billions in wall funding without a path to citizenship and doesn’t address the larger 1.8 million population of potential DACA recipients.
Quote:
Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), the No. 2 Senate Republican, left the door open to dropping immigration into the mammoth spending bill, saying “some temporary provision” could be included if both sides can reach an agreement.

Did TPS allow international travel freely? If so, I think we can get some sort of travel rights

Advance Parole Combo Card

For applicants who apply for Advance Parole together with an Employment Authorization Document (EAD), USCIS issues a “combo card”, a version of the EAD card which contains the words “SERVES AS I-512 ADVANCE PAROLE.” An example of this Advance Parole Document is pictured below.

DACA extension for DACA beneficiaries only. No wall funding. Any plan to simply extend DACA must not include any border security funding. That's some bullshit. How the fuck are they going to allow Trump to claim that he got money to begin building the wall and we get a fucking extension. Any type of extension that's not permanent must not include any money.

$7.6 billion for 3 years reprieve?

No way.

Most of us right now will have ~2020 as expiration. Trump will not be president by then and a Republican will not be elected in 2020.

I don't see why any real Democrats will go for this.

Flake just wants to go out with a bang with any kind of DACA deal.

I see some of you are somewhat against the offer. I think you should reconsider your opinion. Congress cannot agree on anything. I think $7.6 billion for three years is fair. This is a temporary fix until we have suitable people who can agree on something. This is three years to formulate a plan.
