Being allowed to flaunt the immigration laws of the nation is an incredible privilege in and of itself. It is already a privilege that you can sit in DACA-status and DEMAND a greencard be served up to you on a silver platter. If you want to DEMAND a greencard, then you'd better have something they want, either family ties to this nation, job offer, advanced skills, or 500k USD. Anything else is peanuts.

This nation is not obligated to accept us, give us anything, or even do anything in our favor. The nation that is obligated, is known as your birth country, the one you ran away from.

Let me put it this way, it would certainly be a nice gesture from this nation to grant us the privilege of staying permanently and merging into the American Populace. I would certainly prefer to stay in the nation I know.

Why can't that somebody be Trump? or McConnell, who refuses to put anything on the floor that Trump won't sign? It just seems ridiculous to me to hear someone talk about compromising when they themselves don't intend to.

If they do not, then the Republicans might need to up their offers from Bridge Act to USA Act or even Dream Act and then the Democrats MIGHT want to give some money for the wall. I think that would be a good deal, but I do not see it happening. On the other hand, if they do take up the case, then who knows how they will rule. It seems like we are in a stand still... There isn't much to speculate on anymore.

Will they include aged out Dreamers? I have been waiting since 2001.

Someone will fold under pressure and it looks like the GOP will fold first
