I've got news for you guys: REPUBLICANS HAVE BOTH HOUSES OF CONGRESS AND THE WHITE HOUSE. Do you really not understand how politics work or do you just like bitching about things that you have no control over? Elections have consequences.

This is what you get when progressives fight within themselves and say "Bernie or Bust" or they give a protest vote to Jill Stein. Nothing meaningful is going to happen until Democrats take back congress and even then it may take till after 2020 to actually have a robust immigration bill.

It will be dumb for the Democrats to try to shut down the government over a "bunch of illegals" and they will lose many independent votes if they do. That's just the reality.

You also got DACA in case you forgot.

You must not care to wait another 10 years and be a 52 yr old ' Dreamer' or must be self-employed, or work for an employer who does not verify work eligibility.
