 Congress weighs leaving Dreamers in limbo another year

If lawmakers can’t reach a broader deal, they could provide temporary protections for the young undocumented immigrants.

Congress may just end up punting on its Dreamer dilemma.

As lawmakers grasp for a solution for the young undocumented immigrants, one option is a temporary extension — perhaps one year — of their legal protections paired with a little bit of cash for border security.

“That may be where we’re headed because, you know, Congress is pretty dysfunctional,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), one of the few to publicly acknowledge the possibility of a temporary fix. “That’d be a real loss. But that’s probably where we’re headed, OK?”

Good move.

Better move:
Leave them "in limbo"... FOREVER!

In limbo for another year?  So what, that is exactly where they have been since the moment in time when they illegally crossed the border.  The US govt didn't put them in this position, their parents did.

Can't Trump simply rescind Bammy's EO?
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
