Graham is literally the sponsor for the Dream Act in the Senate.
Lindsey Graham. Yes you are right.

Okay interesting. We will see how it goes. The list I obtained were senators who voted for the keystone pipe BTW.

The same strategy of picking off vulnerable Dems was implemented with tax reform and it didn’t work. Beehive is on crack

My girl from Alaska, Murkowski, is good for support.

You know how republicans are, they are not going to give in and go crying to Democrats.
It doesn't really help the fact that Trump has constantly renegaded from his promises and past comments about us. He's the President and should be the intermediary bridging the two sides for the common good. Everybody knows a bill to legalize us is good and common sense, but because of all this political posturing coming from the President erases any hope real progress can be achieved.

Initially, I had very high hopes of Ryan's working group but as it turns out, it, along with many other working groups else where, were nothing but time fillers...a smoke screen. From the latest comments I've read coming from the GOP, I truly believe most of the members DO NOT want any sort of relief for us. At first their messaging was "sympathetic to dreamers and we should find bipartisan fix"...then.."working group will make decision on proper fix but most likely w/border sec+GOP to offer Billion wannabe-Dream Act bills."...then all of a sudden "NO DEAL this year...maybe EARLY 2018 we'll have plenty of time in 2018"...like WTF!!

So the calculations by Republicans definitely changed somewhere within that time frame. And who is responsible for this chaos? Trump. The incompetent leader of the free world.

In just a few months' time, we went from "great kids" to "illegal immigrants" hungry for amnesty. I hope Trump falls down from his high chair spectacularly!

Here's something fun to distract us from our possible impending freedom or doom. If it were to pass, what day do you think it would be and how would it go down? My guess is Dec. 29. After Dems and repubs agree to fund the gov until the 31st so they can have more work days because tax reform will be debated up to Dec 6. Yes, this is completely speculative. Yes, I understand the gravity of the situation, mine expires in September. Let's not turn this into a flame war, just trying to have fun the with the juxtaposition of our outcomes.

I don't think the spending issue will be voted on Dec 8th. Republicans, clever that they are, will probably find some way to have the vote near Christmas so there wouldn't as much people paying attention.

No way it'll be this soon. 8th is next Friday!

That's when the government funding runs out so something will need to happen by the 8th!

to be fair, we knew they were gonna throw shit at each other since the deadline is approaching. both sides dont wanna give up any leverage they have and be blamed.

Trump is acting really bizarre tbh, must be Flynn cooperating with Mueller.
