I agree with you, however, you don't see Democrats falling behind other causes. And that is because they seize the opportunity to defend them and advance them as soon as the chance presents itself.
There is really no excuse. They wasted nearly 10 years with Obama that they could have engaged in negotiations as they claim to do now. Nothing to stop them. They just did not care enough. They criminalized immigrants, advanced Secure Communities, increased deportations, and with a majority of 60 votes with an all Democratic government, codified a mandate to fill detention centers. All by Democrats.
