I firmly believe that if Republicans were to enact some form of immigration relief, it would be detrimental to the Democrats. I am almost certain that Dreamers would not vote for the Democratic party. Latinos used to support Democrats because of their commitment to immigration reform that would benefit their loved ones. However, Democrats have consistently failed to deliver on this promise for decades. It's been 25 years! When do you finally say "enough is enough"? When your DACA status is revoked, your job is gone, your home is lost, maybe even your marriage. What will it take for you to stand up and take action? |
I think when both sides have awful margins it's more likely to temper the excesses.

Democrats were aware of this outcome and played a role in it. Biden was revealed to have initiated the construction of new detention facilities, paving the way for more deportations.
Why did the Democrats neglect to include protections for Dreamers when they approved the tough Laken Riley Act? Why did Gallegos and Fetterman dodge questions about Dreamers when confronted by the media?
In my opinion, Democrats are equally responsible for the current situation. The only distinction is that they conduct their deceptive actions in secret. They may promise not to deport you, but their actions behind closed doors suggest otherwise.

I expect some posts from some of you blaming the Dems once the government shuts down. LOL <3 "But the Democrats!" You guys are insufferable. |
I told you so! LOL LOL!!.
BREAKING: Chuck Schumer Will Vote For Republican Funding Bill
Quote:

WASHINGTON – Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said he will vote to advance the Republican funding extension and avoid a government shutdown at the end of the day Friday. "While the CR bill is very bad, the potential for a shutdown has consequences for America that are much, much worse," he said during a speech on the Senate floor Thursday. "I believe it is my job to make the best choice for the country to minimize the harms to the American people. Therefore I will vote to keep the government open and not shut it down.” |

Democrats neglected to include protections because they simply didn't have the votes to offer up any meaningful opposition. Simply not permitted to offer up any amendments.
Gallegos was caught unawares and he solely is to blame for Laken Riley bill. It was pretty obvious he didn't read it and was unaware of its content and or he is in a vulnerable race/district etc.
I think Democrats are the best we have, because the other team is queuing up the Alien Enemies act, and has never, not once, brought up the dream act not even in a token announcement. Though to be fair, some republicans, the good ones with brains and courage, did bring up things in partnership with democrats under better times.
