I generally very pessimistic, but this time I agree that there seems to some hope. Or do I just want to believe cause I want it so badly...

Biden has surrounded himself with personnel from a broad immigration coalition so he has to know the time is now. I have no doubt they’ve been telling him to act quickly. The economy is failing and what better way than to use immigrants to get the economy building again. He keeps saying he can walk and chew gum at the same time and I believe him. I think a complete overhaul of the immigration system is coming. We shall see. If they implement the same rule with drivers licenses and I’d cards where you pay 2 years of back taxes together with the fine it’s literally an influx of billions flowing into the economy. And that’s not even counting the money for paperwork used to adjust. Immigration has always been the easiest issue to solve.
I felt the same way when Obama won the first time, i hope this new administration does not repeat the same mistakes. I hope they don't leave this issue intil the end of their term in hopes to get more seats in the next election and also don't cave to the Republicans poisoned pills in order to get their support.

He needs to not only send a bill to Congress but hit the ground running on gathering the support and necessary votes to pass it. Seriously, we've got solid footing now, full control of the House and simple majority in the Senate. 2021 has to be the year that AT LEAST a bipartisan Dream Act passes.

I definitely think Trump inadvertently did a good job with Jeff Sessions, from our point of view. First, he took him out of the Senate by appointing him AG, and then fired him lol. There's no way Sessions can come back now.

In Bidens press briefing yesterday, Biden said he would send the bill on day 1 to the committees but then alluded to that it may not be taken up for a while and it was not a current priority. We need to temper our expectations, I seriously doubt that anything will be taking up until the worst of covid is behind up and the economy is in recovery.

The bill is being drafted by a rep from California so expect a lot of drama over it.

I say this not to make people lose hope but have realistic expectations. Our problems are not all solved because trump is out and dems are in. We still have many hardcore trump supporters in office and trump is still capable of torpedoing any bill VIA social media.
