Durbin’s statement on daca development - Page 2

Trump may get a piece of his wall, asylum rules changed, court procedures changed, maybe the raise act etc etc or he gets absolutely nothing. We also get absolutely nothing. I don’t think either side wants that.

While we call it the “daca fix” (since that’s the only part we’re focused on) Trump gets his win by reshaping the immigration system. This is why we get relief. Paul Ryan, McConnell et al fall in line.

Perfect scenario IMO would be DA in exchange for:

-Visa lottery
-Chain migration, ( only wife, -18 kids and parents allowed)
-Border security ( includes portions of the fence )
-Interior enforcement
