As House Republicans propose an immigration bill conservatives could gladly support, Senate Republicans seem to be moving to the Left on immigration.
A bipartisan immigration deal to grant amnesty to so-called Dreamers and take steps toward securing the border has reportedly been reached in the U.S. Senate. The Washington Post reports that a group including Sens. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., and Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., are presenting the framework of their DACA plan to the White House Thursday.
Weve got this bipartisan group, were at a deal, Sen. Flake told reporters Thursday. So well be talking to the White House about that and I hope we can move forward with it. Its the only game in town. Theres no other bill.

Thank you
Now maybe we can catch our breath and not pitch a fit every time Trump appears to do something we do not like. FR used to be a site for news and intelligent commentary, not bellyaching.
What a difference a day makes. Yesterday it was daca is not amnesty. Today it’s all about the daca amnesty bill.
Thank you
Love it
Maybe you shouldn’t be reading things out of context.

Yes, he said that, but he also very clearly said, “...any legislation on DACA, we feel at least a strong part of this group feels has to accomplish three vital goals.”
“Truly, it should be a bill of love, and we can do that. But it also has to be a bill where were able to secure our border.”
“So, in order to secure it, we need a wall.”
“Second, it has to be a bill to end chain migration.”
“And the other is cancel the lottery program. They call it visa lottery, I just call it lottery. But countries come in and they put names in a hopper. Theyre not giving you their best names; common sense means theyre not giving you their best names. Theyre giving you people that they dont want. And then we take them out of the lottery. And when they do it by hand where they put the hand in a bowl theyre probably whats in their hand are the worst of the worst.”
I'll believe it when it's announced by the White House.
Thank you
Senator Cotton call this a joke? Flake/Durbin/Graham proposal certainly is a big joke.
on Fox the Angle.
-increase chain migration
-increase more immigration
-increase low and no skilled workers
- $1.6 bil for the wall LoL.
Border first ya sonsabeetches!!!
I’ll never feel ashamed for asking Trump to keep his campaign promises. Nor should anyone else.
This is very good news. :D
You said it much more politely than I’ve been saying it.
These people hate America.
Guess I should have put a sarc tag on that. I was poking fun at the posters with their hair on fire yesterday thoroughly denouncing Trump for “selling us out”.
“Its the only game in town.” (Flake said)
How about no “game” and just enforce current laws - stop allowing illegals in, deport the ones here.
No deal!
ann’s a little full of herself - like Trump makes decisions based on her LOL
This is the gasp of the GOPe swamp telling Trump he HAS to do it the swamp way.
