HARTFORD, Conn. (WTNH) Congress has until midnight Friday, to strike a deal on a host of issues before government funding is set to run out.
At the heart of it, nearly 800,000 undocumented young immigrants. Thats why dozens of Connecticut Dreamers are on their way to the nations capitol Tuesday morning.
Theyre message to Congress is to pass the Dream Act.
Republicans and Democrats both want to lift spending caps, which limit the amount of money the government can spend without adding to the deficit.
Democrats say in order for them to support the republicans spending plan, they must include a legislative fix to help thousands of Dreamers.

Thats why dozens of Connecticut Dreamers are on their way to the nations capitol Tuesday morning. Headlines tomorrow should read: "The Dozen-Man March". Washington needs to prepare -- they may have to bring in an extra porta-potty.
[My computer tried to correct that to "sorta-potty".]

Great harmonies.

CNN: Democrats, don't let Trump's bad words kill DACA dealThis seems to be saying that Trump shouldn't have said sh**hole or whatever he said, but Dems should try to get a deal for DACA because, as Rand Paul said, "You can't have an immigration compromise if everybody is out there calling the President a racist."
Of course Schumer, Pelosi, etc. are going to pretend they hold all the cards. Fake News awards tomorrow.

"Theyre message to Congress is to pass the Dream Act." WTNH just blew whatever remaining shred of credibility they had.
