Hey guys, i know similar articles are posted already but i would like your thought on what Rep Senator cornyn is implying in this statement. if they end chain migration, would they keep the option for US citizen to sponsor parents?

The Senate next month will take up legislation that would fund the southern border wall, limit chain migration, and provide for other border security provisions, but would also meet the demand of many Democrats by creating a program for the so-called Dreamers.

Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said the measure might be considered as a standalone bill, but could also be wrapped up into a year-long spending deal anticipated next month. He said the deal won’t encompass comprehensive immigration reform addressing the nation’s 11 million illegal immigrants, because that would be difficult to achieve in January.

Cornyn said he believes Democrats at the meeting signaled they would be willing to place limits on chain migration, which allows relatives of legal immigrants to come to the United States.

“I get the sense that they would be open to nuclear families and parents,” Cornyn said

What does "nuclear" mean? Anyone?

Also, the post is missing the part where he says that if a deal is reached, it could be included in the spending bill.

I'm assuming that it means spouses, minor children and parents. Probably getting rid of sibling sponsorship.

I think it means spouses and children and not parents or siblings. They do not want Dreamers to be able to sponsor their parents.

If they go through with this without including elder dreamers who were not eligible for DACA, this would kill any chance and forever close the door to them ever getting a green card

Nuclear family is basically parents+kids, two generations only.


Anyways, Chuck the Cuck will fold again and we'll get some bridge act + fuck off we're full act package.

I'm thinking maybe they should accept. Any law that is not an amendment can be changed in the future with majorities. This is one of the last Republican strongholds, a dying breath.
