DACA | HuffPost
When Trump abruptly ended DACA in September, sending Attorney General Jeff Sessions before the cameras to deliver the bad news in nearly gleeful fashion, it threw the lives of hundreds of thousands of people into chaos.
Cornyn said the real work for a bipartisan immigration deal will be achieved by a group of four leading lawmakers - the No. 2 Republicans and Democrats in both the House and Senate.
Trump's initial response sparked questions around whether he actually knew what a "clean" Dream Act meant, which would not include any additional security or enforcement measures. First, address Dreamers, the undocumented immigrants brought to this country as children.
The Senate group has been working for months to craft legislation that would protect 700,000 illegal immigrants brought to the United States as children under a program known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA.
Short said the administration is concerned about a number of issues including the amount of protection at the U.S. -Mexico border and family preferences for immigrants. Alsup's court is the District Court for the Northern District of California. The judge said that argument was likely to prevail.
ROSE: The Department of Justice says it will vigorously defend its decision to end DACA. "The iron is hot".
If, on the other hand, White House aides again explain that notwithstanding all appearances their boss was really insisting on conditions, we've just skipped backward two steps in the process.
As part of this deal, they would be given some visas.
An immigration package "must be part of a global deal on the budget", Schumer said.
A summary of the bill's provisions reads like an immigration hawk's wish list. Lindsey Graham met with Trump to discuss a compromise plan from a bipartisan "Gang of Six" senators, but were rebuffed and told to keep working, Durbin said told reporters.

Premier League Predictions: Liverpool vs. Man City, United vs. Stoke
He's in the end of his career, so if next summer we buy a midfield player, it's not to improve our squad, it's to replace Michael Carrick.
No. 2 Senate GOP leader John Cornyn of Texas told reporters Wednesday he'd be "surprised" if an immigration deal can be completed by the January 19 deadline. It allows people brought to the US illegally as children to stay.
But the president has not been clear on what he would accept and during a Wednesday news conference with Erna Solberg, the prime minister of Norway, he said any legislation must include the wall.
Border security. The bill provides funding to build a wall and hire agents at the border. "President Trump is committed to the rule of law, and will work with members of both parties to reach a permanent solution that corrects the unconstitutional actions taken by the last administration". That proposal has been strongly opposed by Democrats and many Republicans as a futile waste of money.
In a statement, White House spokesperson Sarah Sanders thanked the lawmakers on behalf of Trump and said the legislative proposal seeks to comply with the main priorities of the President for United States citizens. We need the wall for safety.
"We need to organize", she said, "we need to be aware and out there pushing Congress to fix this". He'd made similar statements previous year, but this time it was in the context of negotiations for actual legislation.
U.S. Rep. Bob Goodlatte, R-Roanoke County, introduced a bill to Congress Wednesday that could open the door for so-called dreamers to apply for visas and includes increased spending for border security. He said while he helped head off a bipartisan immigration effort in 2013, "I don't want to promise the result will be the same".
"I was definitely surprised because I saw it on my facebook feed".
More than 1,000 DACA recipients daily will face deportation in March, advocates say. With Trump's support, there should be more than enough Democratic and moderate Republican votes to get a Dream Act to his desk (even if some House progressives and conservatives buck their respective leaders).
