Rep. Aguilar, who co-authored the bill trading huge amnesty for a figleaf study, finished 2nd in his primary yesterday. Is it possible DREAMer amnesty is not the golden electoral ticket advocates pretend it is? (It's a ticket to donor $ though.) https://t.co/1ea8xNDzRE

Reminder: If Denham's going to restrict it to those who've "graduated from high school" he's going to be leaving a lot of "Dreamers" out, because you don't have to have graduated from HS to qualify as "Dreamer." That's PR BS. https://t.co/JZww69Vqpj https://t.co/Xand7Km4iM

A bit hard to believe this fight over citizenship is the real debate. a) If DACAns are legal, will get citizenship eventually one way or another; b) because of (a), lack of special path hasn't been dealbreaker for amnesty supporters before. https://t.co/EfcNFmDBTP

Wouldn't it be better to have triggers holding back DACA until Wall goals are met? https://t.co/r9JKJ99pHF

Still think it's odd that no radio pundits are talking about Rep. Aguilar coming in second to a GOP in what Cook rates a solid Dem seat (CA-31). Yes, another Dem got 8% of vote, so Dems win total vote. Still. He's an incumbent, got only 46% in 3-man race. .. https://t.co/Xvopx66wcz

Remember: Only a fool relies on the House Freedom Caucus to hang tough on immigration https://t.co/pFhUl5g4uD You can't trust Trump either–who knows what Jared's telling him? You can only rely on pressure from voters. Capitol switchboard is 202 224 3121 https://t.co/9u1bkxrcAN

I hear deal being cooked up is much worse than this story suggests. Cuts in extended family (chain) migration are fake. The amnesty is big. And of course no E-Verify. https://t.co/Plem7NgVlO

Of course even if you decided to help only a "unique sliver" that *inherently* encourages more illegal immigration–"come to US with your kids & they can be citizens as the next 'unique sliver.'" Or kids can come by themselves (they qualify as DREAMers too!) https://t.co/TnjAgVFCRJ

Command F "warrant": Buried in these stories about detained illegals you typically discover they're wanted for defying court order, etc. Not just random undocumented snatched off the street. Sure enough … https://t.co/EwhFB9X80k

Makes it sound like they have a union. They don't. Beauty of a tight labor market is you don't need a union to win a big pay raise. https://t.co/QcPGKvKPih

Another GOP moneybags throwing his weight around, demanding DACA fix or no more $$. https://t.co/IjrbPVX96O Must be frustrating, having all that money but not getting your way because of those meddling voters.
