Quote:
Cotton said he’s willing to support legal residence for the DACA recipients, with the right to eventually gain U.S. citizenship. He said he agrees with the White House that they should be allowed to sponsor spouses and minor children for legal residence, but not siblings or adult children.
Democrats need to give more in return, Cotton said, including ending the diversity visa program and more border security. The Trump administration has proposed $18 billion over a decade to build a wall.
Third-ranking Senate Republican John Thune of South Dakota said it will take more time to build a consensus.

....basically this. Democrats are offering too little for too much in return. They really hate the idea of giving Trump the full wall funding even if it means reducing our chances. So far the Gang of Six has come up with only 10% of Trump's $18B wall funding and DV Lottery being reduced to 50%.
