Him and Durbin are the only ones who genuinely care for us. We'll see |
They didn’t make a move in September but December is the time!!! They promised

If Democrats don't do nothing come December. DACA talks will be shelved for a very long time. They want to target taxes which won't be easy, and then come back to healthcare for the millionth time. |
Also, I disagree... in March as DREAMers start to expire and some get caught up in Trump's deportation machine there will be a public outcry. It'll be a international travesty.

The most likely scenario is the Republican leadership and Trump meet with the Dems near December to strike up a deal. Democrats can demand a clean DA or even a DA with sensible border security provisions and that's it.

With that being said it's very sad that Miller has more leverage than Ivanka, Jared and Kelly.

What I don't like about the WH guidlines is that they are a nonstarter for MANY Republicans. He can veto it, but he can't veto a DA with a budget deal or debt ceiling increase.
