Bipartisan group of senators says it has a DACA deal Bipartisan group of senators says it has a DACA deal 2 Hours Ago | 01:04

A bipartisan group of senators working on immigration legislation has reportedly reached a consensus.

The deal will be announced later Wednesday, senators involved in the so-called Common Sense Coalition told reporters after a closed-door meeting.

"It's going to be ready today," said Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., The Hill reported.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said the deal would establish a pathway to citizenship for the nearly 2 million undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children and protected under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, or DACA, Bloomberg reported. Graham also said the deal will address border security.

Graham said the deal would not, however, deal with the so-called diversity visa lottery, which prioritizes immigration from countries that send fewer immigrants to the U.S., or family reunification, which immigration hardliners have dubbed "chain migration."

You can multiply those numbers by about 2 or 3 by the time all is said and done, because you know as well as I do that when anchor babies are given citizenship, few if any judges will allow ICE to deport their parents or older siblings

Not sure why this is so hard.

Do you have a link to Trump actually saying this that isn’t someone else saying Trump said it? I’m being a pain in the ass here because that goes completely against everything we’ve seen from Trump and I’m having a hard time believing it.

(why is the Senate sneaking in a vote for amnesty while we are in a national day of morning? )

Because sneaking is what they do best.

Hold on now! Wasn’t the Florida school shooter a DACA baby? Do we want MORE of THEM?

I have not heard that one.

you tube “Trump white house immigration meeting”. There is no question that he said it.

[Personal Responsibility]

So you don’t have a link to it then, I guess. Ok.

You keep posting his words out of context! GO AWAY TROLL!

I guess I was right to doubt Trump would just “sign whatever was put in front of him”.

"Is the “Common Sense Caucus” a triumph of marketing over accuracy? The White House has been very clear on the terms it will accept for granting a path to citizenship for DACA recipients and normalization of the program. They want a border wall and an end to broad family-unification or “chain migration” practices in order to keep the problem from recurring. Donald Trump went so far as to issue a veto threat for anything that doesn’t fully resolve the issue."

“bipartisan” is code word for “conservatives caved”.

If it prevents even ONE school shooting, it is WELL WORTH deporting ALL the DACA “kids”!!
