Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York said on Sunday he thinks Democrats will block the measure to give the president $5.7 billion for the border wall. The proposal would also extend temporary protections for some young people brought to the U.S. illegally as children and immigrants who fled disaster zones.
Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is to bring Trump’s proposal to the Senate floor for a vote on Tuesday.
Schumer also pushed legislation that would protect government workers who can’t pay their bills because of the government shutdown. He says the measure would shield workers from eviction or home foreclosure, repossession of their cars and penalties for late payment of bills and student loans.
Chucky needs a different career. He is not a team player at all. First he refuses to make a deal, then promises to make sure a proposal won’t pass. That’s crooked. I wish him speedy exit and retirement from politics.
She’s a big fat liar. Let her bring into a vote. And then will talk!
So the republcians are ready to pass a bill now its a chucky shut down.
it’s always been a Pelosi & Chuckie SHUTDOWN. They won’t even meet President Trump to discuss a deal. Wait until the “real” Democrats come out against her and talk to the President to compromise, then she’ll lose power and Chuckie & Pelosi will open their own firm.
I imagine the Senate would pass it unless some hard right tea party types have a problem with giving the DACA people three years.
Today educated turned Rob yesterday was Esther. At least Esther is a Jewish Name.
No Wall, No Deportations, No MAGA, NEVER AGAIN.
