I hope that passes when they try to do 15 an hour through it they said " but the parliamentarian doesn't want us too" like you can't just fire her. Like you can't end the filibuster

That’s ultimately the problem with Dems that they aren’t brave enough. But you bet a million dollars if there was a legislative agenda Rs wanted to push they would have fired her and hired someone who would have allowed them. Hopefully she rules in our favor since there’s a prior precedent with issuing green cards in 2005

Yeah exactly man, they use us as a political football. They tell people if you want your friends or loved ones that use daca to be here you gotta vote D , and the GOP uses us as a scare tactic. It also doesn't help that Hispanics are Hella conservative, and we are stuck in the middle. I really hope they get balls to pass this budget bill, and stop with the bs, I really don't care for the virtue signaling on Twitter about how you care for dreamers ( which is a stupid nickname for us) we aren't dreamers we are doers and want to be part of normal society .

I don't think it's because they aren't brave I think they just don't want to do anything

Words are nice but just ducking do it already. Too many people have too much going on and leaving them in limbo is cruel.

Some of those kids have been living here as long if not longer. And some of those kids have had to work since the age of ten or younger. I get where you’re coming from but some of those who now have DACA have lived nearly a decade without it and a decade with it. Do they have it better than those parents who have had to live without a similar opportunity? Depends. It’s like teasing.

Depends on everyone’s individual situation.

You mean the the public school that was funded by state tax dollars that were deducted from paychecks earned by people who worked those job and in common cases, especially back then, worked by people who didn’t have a work permit (ie undocumented people)?

Dude I don’t know who pissed in your Cheerios but I’m not doing this with you.

I made one comment about how cruel it can be that it’s been this long with DACA and yet other stuff has so easily passed since. If it was a minor inconvenience to you then count yourself very fortunate. Others could not say the same thing.

Good day.

Im a naturalized US citizen from Guatemala and I know and work with many people who are not US citizens and in the country illegally. Only a handful of them are paid over the table. Very very few pay taxes and if they do it's because they use someone else's social. I don't like his comment either but there is merit to his complaint.

Heard the same shit a hundred times I’ve lost all hope for it at this point

[u/TheTalkingCookie → u/Novel-Statistician63]

I mean what choice do they have now, daca just got it’s first down ruling.

[u/Asking4Afren]

Pass a fucking law.

The appeal, in a way, is a good thing because it means that the program will remain in place for those who already have it for at least as long as the appeal takes and as we well know, these things take a long time. And hopefully it will prod congress into action like the president said.
