Bipartisan group of senators says it has a DACA deal Bipartisan group of senators says it has a DACA deal 2 Hours Ago | 01:04

A bipartisan group of senators working on immigration legislation has reportedly reached a consensus.

The deal will be announced later Wednesday, senators involved in the so-called Common Sense Coalition told reporters after a closed-door meeting.

"It's going to be ready today," said Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., The Hill reported.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said the deal would establish a pathway to citizenship for the nearly 2 million undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children and protected under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, or DACA, Bloomberg reported. Graham also said the deal will address border security.

Graham said the deal would not, however, deal with the so-called diversity visa lottery, which prioritizes immigration from countries that send fewer immigrants to the U.S., or family reunification, which immigration hardliners have dubbed "chain migration."

That isn’t close to half a loaf. It’s not even a half a slice of bread from the end of the loaf. The wall is just theatrics compared to eliminating the diversity lottery and chain migration.

the so-called Common Sense Coalition

Why don't they just turn the level of condescension up to 11 and call themselves the "Smart Coalition"?

“The offices of Sens. Jeff Flake, Susan Collins, Graham and Kaine did not immediately respond to CNBC’s requests for comment.”

I seriously doubt President Trump will respond favorably to those turkeys bill either without the two immigration fiascoes being stopped.

Bipartisan group of senators says it has a DACA deal =

Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va. and Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C. That’s two, not a group.

Calm down, raiderboy, before you have a stroke. It’s typical propaganda and subterfuge from the lying commies at cnbc.

Well then either Trump keeps his word and vetoes this POS or effectively end his presidency, likely resulting in at least his impeachment in 2019 and kill the MAGA movement if he signs it into law!

In order to be truly bipartisan I think the Senate would be able to override a veto, and I hope Trump does plan on vetoing this POS plan. Or I hope it’s amended to shreds with anti-lottery and anti-chain laws.

Subsequently...and on numerous occasions he also said:

It has to have Wall, end to chain migration and the lottery.
