We've already been through this in 2006,
.....then 2007,
.....then 2007 again,
.....then a lot of talking about it in 2009,
.....then the House passing the Dream Act in 2010 and Senate voting on it,
.....then a lot of "we are in the process of constructing a bill" in 2011
(...)
..... and 7 years later we are exactly where we started: The senate is in favor of one solution, while the House will only vote for an enforcement-only version of a CIR bill.
Our only victory was DACA, which was actually able to get around the legislative process....and you could still make a good argument it was primarily a calculated pre-election strategy.
If getting Immigration Reform passed is like a war, then it is exactly like World War I, where you had battles with casualties close to one million, in order to win a 10 mile portion of the No Man's Land.....only to lose it again a few months later.
