As for border security, the Republicans are poised to secure that and more in their budget negotiation deal without the need for Democratic support. It is frustrating to see Republicans consistently blocking bills as the minority, while Democrats seem unable to take action. We cannot depend on Republicans to provide relief with the way things are going.
Our only viable solution will likely come during the spending bill. However, do not anticipate any significant action or support from the Democrats. We already know they are weak on everything. The Democrats' way of fighting back is by dressing in pink to "protest." Let that sink in…

Democrats lost badly in November. They have a minority in the Senate and the House. In case you didn't know, they ALL voted "no" on many of Trump's cabinet member appointments, including the brain worm man. They also filibustered on one the first pieces of legislation this Congress is trying pass (a few days ago).
What else, specifically and realistically, do you want them to do at this point and moving forward? They have no power. Dems lost big. What do you want? Get your head out of your ass.
Also, for a Plan B... you keep saying NOW it will be hard given the administrative and institutional changes (to USCIS, for example). You've had since 2012 to work on a plan B and just now your considering one? You sat on your ass, waiting for politicians to come to your rescue, and have been typing essays on this lonely forum. That's your fault. You've had since 2012 (more than 10 years) to work on your dating game and work towards marriage with a USC or be better prepared to come up with a plan to move elsewhere or some other alternative.
But the Democrats, amirite?
