I just think that we should not state whether we're open to compromise. That will give GOP leverage and then they'll demand the Raise Act. Nancy and Chuck know what they're doing - and I would hate to indirectly hurt the negotiations in any way.
Reading UWD's tweets - they are sending mixed messages and contradicting themselves. Not trying to bash them but just stating my observation. Some are saying to pass the DA now/ASAP while others are demanding clean DA only because border security hurts communities.
@DreamersforUSA is doing a great job (it may be a DAP member ? ) and is actually tweeting @realDonaldTrump - praising him and saying positive things. I think the #DacaDeal tweets are great  But let's not say "we're willing to compromise" just yet.
Let's just keep our message positive, tweet statistics, RT Senators who support us, urge those who haven't yet and RT individual Dreamers sharing their stories. Just my suggestions. |
Thank you Zara for posting this and reaching out to me via PM. I'm glad you understand what I was trying to explain about internal strategy. And I agree lets tweets supportive, positive messages but lets not lay all our cards on the table
We should refrain from direct statements pertaining to compromise, the wall, e verify, etc.
As we don't know what deals/negotiations may already be in play.
Although I understand not wanting to use #DreamActNow, I don't think #HereToStay has negative connotations. We are truly here to stay, with DA or not, most of us will remain here.
