 Growing list of conservative demands threatens bipartisan deal on 'dreamers'

    Chicago Tribune 9/26/17
    Mike Debonis Washington Post
 

    President Donald Trump discussed the outlines of a potential deal to protect those covered by the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program with Democratic congressional leaders at a White House dinner this month. The tentative deal would couple permanent protections for those immigrants with improved border security.

    But key conservative Republicans in the House and Senate are coalescing around a broader suite of policies as a condition of backing a deal, and that has Democrats and moderate Republicans warning that the current, fragile consensus could quickly break apart.

  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
If the GOP wants to deal on this they need to extract a boatload of concessions.
The Republic is lost.

I don't care about "concessions" -- they will all be bad or ultimately unenforceable.

NO DEAL.
NO AMNESTY.
