WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday he and lawmakers are close to a deal on protections for illegal immigrants brought to the United States as children, but stressed any such deal would need to include border security measures.
The Republican president met with Democratic congressional leaders on Wednesday evening to discuss the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, a policy enacted by Democratic former President Barack Obama that protected so-called Dreamers from deportation and allowed them to stay and work in the United States.
It doesn't look like they are in agreement yet, but they are making progress. A legally allowable DACA for tighter border security.

It looks like major border security enhancements are the price Democrats will be expected to pay for DACA.

bad move.
those hombres will be citizens forever and the border security measures disappear the moment trump isn't in the white house. republican or democrat...that shite will be gone
just flat repeal Obamacare and you can have your hombres.

It's kind of a brilliant strategy really. Trump unilaterally got rid of DACA and now uses it as a bargaining chip.
Legislation restoring DACA isn't really a win for democrats. It just reverts back to where we already were but this time with strict border security in the form of actual legislation. So if accomplished, it's an overall win for the GOP and fixes a problem moving forward while not punishing those who are already here.
I can accept that. But border security better come first. Don't let them do the bait and switch like Tip did with Reagan and amnesty

You know who else agreed to tighter border security in exchange for amnesty? Reagan. The illegals and the dems got their amnesty and California, and we got fricked on border security. We are going to get fricked again if any amnesty comes before the border is secured.

Remember that thing called compromise that nobody even tries to do anymore? That's what this is. We'd all be better off if we were willing to bend on more issues like this.
No Dem or Repub will love this deal but its manageable for both parties, and at this point, I'll take that.

Did my satellite dish-size ears hear our God Emperor correctly when he said "the wall will come later"?
