You know what my opinion right now. I don't think Dream Act will emerge tomorrow.

Since the House has picked a legislative vehicle for Dream Act, the Senate must use the same legislative vehicle to pass Dream Act.

Specific, in the house, Dream Act is now an amendment to the bill HR 5281. For Senate to pass Dream Act, Senate must pass the same bill HR 5281 instead of passing S 3992.

However, Reid hasn't filed for cloture for the bill HR 5281. After Reid files for cloture, it takes 2 days for cloture to ripen before the senator could vote on it.

In short, it appears highly unlikely that Dream Act vote occurs in Senate on Thursday 12/9.

And I do hope that Senate don't vote for Dream Act this Thursday because the tax cut issue hasn't been fully resolved yet. Everyone expects the tax cut vote on Saturday. Then we could move to Dream Act later, so Republican will run out of excuse not to vote for DA

I love you long time, victor85!

I totally agree with this, and hopefully this is what will happen tomorrow. I really hope Reid will go with the House bill and files cloture for it tomorrow, so it can be debated and voted on either Saturday or next week. At least we have more chance this way. Let's get the tax cut out of the way before doing DA so Republicans will have one less excuse for not supporting DA and hopefully Bennet will come back to us.
