WASHINGTON, D.C. — White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders told reporters Friday that the Trump Administration will be laying out details of a possible deal with Democrat and Republican congressional leaders to pass legislation on DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) and border security measures. One reporter referenced President Donald Trump’s tweet that no chain migration could be a part of an immigration bill, then asked Sanders, “What did he mean by that?”
“The President is focused on making sure that in the efforts of these ongoing conversations between both Democrats and Republicans, that we deliver on responsible immigration reform. He wants to help American workers and families,” replied Sanders.
Chain migration refers to those who hold legal status in the U.S. and use that status to bring members of their family to the United States. The question has been raised in relation to the possibility that DACA recipients, if given legal status in the, could in turn use that to get status for members of their extended families.
“No deal has been final reached on this process,” Sanders continued. “He supports making an agreement on DACA, but that would have to include massive border security and interior enforcements.”
Media reports have been rife with comments from Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi after they took part in a dinner meeting with President Trump on Wednesday evening. The two followed up with a joint statement indicating that they made a deal with the President to quickly legalize DACA and would not include the building of the southern border wall Trump promised during his 2016 campaign. Trump refuted the claims of Schumer and Pelosi at he traveled to Florida on Thursday morning, stating that no deal had been reached.
“He’s still 100% committed to the wall..."

One of these would pay for the Wall - a year after year after year after year savings:

1. $14 billion to $22 billion dollars are spent each year on welfare to illegal aliens (that’s Billion with a ‘B’)
3. $7.5 billion dollars are spent each year on Medicaid for illegal aliens.
4. $12 billion dollars are spent each year on primary and secondary school education for children here illegally and they still cannot speak a word of English!
5. $27 billion dollars are spent each year for education for the American-born children of illegal aliens, known as anchor babies.
6. $3 Million Dollars ‘PER DAY’ is spent to incarcerate illegal aliens. That’s $1.2 Billion a year.
7. 28% percent of all federal prison inmates are illegal aliens.
8. $190 billion dollars are spent each year on illegal aliens for welfare & social services by the American taxpayers.
9. $200 billion dollars per year in suppressed American wages are caused by the illegal aliens.
10. The illegal aliens in the United States have a crime rate that’s two and a half times that of white non-illegal aliens. In particular, their children, are going to make a huge additional crime problem in t he US.
11. During the year 2005, there were 8 to 10 MILLION illegal aliens that crossed our southern border with as many as 19,500 illegal aliens from other terrorist countries. Over 10,000 of those were middle-eastern terrorists. Millions of pounds of drugs, cocaine, meth, heroin, crack, guns, and marijuana crossed into the U.S. from the southern border.
12. The National Policy Institute, estimates that the total cost of mass deportation would be between $206 and $230 billion, or an average cost of between $41 and $46 billion annually over a five year period.
13. In 2006, illegal aliens sent home $65 BILLION in remittances back to their countries of origin, to their families and friends.
14. The dark side of illegal immigration: Nearly one million sex crimes are committed by illegal immigrants in the United States!
Total cost a whopping $538.3 BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR !
Send them back to their countries of origin on lovely air-conditioned buses with supplies, pocket money, and a Spanish-language movie playing the whole way, but send them back.
Works for me.
What law did they break? Since they were brought here illegally at 17 years of age or less, they didn’t break any law, rather their parents broke the law. Even if they came across themselves at age 17, breaking the law as a minor doesn’t normally count as an adult (depends on which law is broken).
Any person who is not a citizen, is here illegally.
They are in violation of the laws of our nation.
Quit focusing your worry on these illegal aliens, and start concerning yourself with the citizens that are abused ever single day as these people sap this nation dry and attack them in criminal acts.
We got anchor babies in the last wall deal. We will get amnesty with this one.
There are also “Lawful Permanent Residents” (Green Card Holders).
You can live your whole life in the U.S. legally and never become a citizen.
Green cards have to be renewed every ten years.
Lawful permanent residents are persons lawfully admitted for permanent residence in the United States who have the right to reside, work, study, and own property. They may serve in the U.S. military and apply to become naturalized U.S. citizens once they meet the citizenship eligibility requirements. Just over 1 million people received green cards in 2015 with Mexico being the number one nation getting Lawful Permanent Resident status, China being number 2 and India s number 3.
If people are here legally, then they can do whatever our laws permit. While I don’t necessarily have a problem with that, I do want our citizens to get first dibs at jobs or anything else.
Those that contribute to the system are those who should get first dibs.
The green card holders are “supposedly” temporary.
BTW: I think they have to sign up every six years. Further, if they have been her for six years, I believe the law allows for them to seek citizenship.
