WASHINGTON (AP) - A bipartisan agreement among a handful of senators to prevent deportation of hundreds of thousands of young immigrants includes a pathway to citizenship that would take up to 12 years.
The Associated Press on Saturday obtained details of the deal that includes $1.6 billion for structures including a wall for border security.
The agreement between three Republican and three Democratic senators would prevent deportation of hundreds of thousands of so-called Dreamers, who were brought to this country as children and are here illegally.
President Donald Trump and some GOP congressional leaders have said the bipartisan deal is insufficient. Its proponents - led by Sens. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., and Lindsey Graham, R-S.C. - say they are continuing to round up supporters in hopes of building momentum for their plan.
Political battle lines intensified following Trump’s vulgar description of African nations and derogatory comments about Haiti at a White House meeting last Thursday, and its fate is uncertain.

Nope...wrong! The US and Canada are the only civilized countries left that have such a policy.The *only* way you should get US citizenship at birth is if either of your parents is a citizen or has a Green Card.
Okay, now that’s actually funny.
“You moved the negotian terms quite a ways from where we need to be so, our terms have changed too.
You could....You could come to the deal squarely or we go back to detente and continue deportations only this time we go all the 711’s,McDonald’s, landscapers and park our buses in front of every Lowes and other hardware stores.
In fact, you’ll have to rename one as “Home Deportation “
So get real and eat the cannoli...
If their parents brought them here, they can bring them back home and introduce them to their country. Solved!
Sort of redundant.
...and when that president signs the 12-minute path bill, Congress will still be debating how to authorize the funds to build the first mile of the wall. By that time, it will cost $1billion per mile, too.
I agree.
But as it stands now the baby stays and the mother also gets to stay.
If you refuse to let the mother stay the incentive is gone.
No stayee, no money from uncle sam.
What good is it to have a baby in the US and get sent back to the shithole you came from...you end up in Tijuana or wherever with a baby to care for.
It is ALL about the welfare handouts.
Absolutely.
LOL!
u almost made me spit up my dinner, that was a good one.
This is Graham’s swan song. He must deliver for his Soros NWO handlers or suffer the consequences.
This deal is DOA. Graham is toast, persona non grata in South Carolina.
I would add no immigration whatsoever until the wall is not only funded but constructed and fully functional for at least a year until immigration resumes.
I think there should be a break while the current crop of imports assimilates, say 20 - 30 years or so.
I could never understand how he keeps getting elected from a state like that.
Their lips were moving when they reported this - a sure sign they were spinning/lying again.
“The Dems would use their left-wing groups (Sierra Club, La Raza) to tie up the wall construction in the federal courts.”
Which is why the legislation must include a phrase that the law may not be challenged in the court.
The WP trying to push a very bad deal on us.
Deport ALL illegals. Seize their assets to pay for it. They are criminals .
