Leading Senate Dem says a dark view on foreign debt |
Washington : The leader of the Senate Democrats' campaign to help millions of immigrants become citizens cast serious doubts about its prospects on Monday, as some of President Joe Biden's priorities appear to be in danger of colliding with his ruling party.
The Republican top senator who was instrumental in previous attempts to find a double compromise on the issue has also expressed despair. Collectively, Sens comments. Dick Durbin, D-Ill. and Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., have emphasized that migration is still a complex issue for both parties to deal with, even if Donald Trump is no longer in the White House.
The Republic wants to address the growing number of young children and families across the Mexican border, and the lack of necessary assistance in both the House and the Senate, making the law impossible, Durbin, the Democratic Alliance's No. 2 chamber leader, told reporters.
"I do not see a way to achieve that," said Durbin, a veteran of previous attempts to strike an immigration agreement, referring to the full two-year congress. "I want it. I think we have a lot of opportunities to deal with the mysterious things" of such a program.
But in the same interview, Durbin said Graham's insistence on dealing with a stream of immigrants at the border would make it difficult to deal with many people's requests for immigration. Among those would be creating a way to become a Dreamer - American citizens have been illegally deported as children.
“Once we start moving in, it gets harder. You know that, ”Durbin said of Graham. Democrat later added, "I wish we could move one piece at a time, but I don't think that's on the cards." Graham said border issues made it very difficult to reach an agreement. He told reporters he believed the full bill would not work this year.
"It will be very difficult to get a draft bill incorporated into anything that is legal until it stops flowing," he said.

Joe Biden has proposed creating a way for the illegal immigration of 11 million immigrants to the U.S.. He also wants to reduce the long wait for other visas, improve border technology and help Central American countries in hopes of reducing the need for people to leave those countries.
In recent days, numbers of children and families trying to enter the U.S. from Mexico have grown to hundreds of unseen since pre-coronavirus epidemics. The Republicans have highlighted the influx, as they want to play foul on Democrats winning more than the USD 1.9 trillion COVID-19 aid bill shown by spies.
"The problem is caused by the presidential policies of the new system," House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., Said Monday as he led a large GOP delegation in El Paso, Texas. "There is no other way to look for it other than the Biden border problem." In its early weeks, Biden sought ways to curb Trump's complex immigration policies, which included separating children from families caught trying to enter the United States illegally as a way to discourage them.
The new authorities held children and families temporarily, mostly from Central America, for a few days. They are usually allowed to enter the U.S. While the authorities are examining their claims for asylum or seeing if they have any other legal right to reside in the country.
Durbin spoke three days before the House planned to accept two bills that would improve pieces of the Democrat emigration program.
One of these measures will open the door to citizenship for Dreamers and people fleeing war-torn countries. One could make it easier for many farm workers to stay in the U.S. and in some cases become citizens.
Both are facing battles to rise in the Senate, where Democrats may need at least 10 GOP votes in the 50-50 chamber.
"I think Speaker Pelosi has found that he has no support for the proposed House bill," Durbin said of Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., A minority of the Democratic Alliance giving him a few votes to save them.
"And I think that points to where the Senate is." A Democratic Alliance House of Representatives spokesman on two immigration bills said the chamber was planning to vote this week and said Democrats "will continue to build support for President Biden's anti-immigration bill."
The aide said "in the coming weeks," the House Justice Committee aims to have votes on Biden's plan.
"We need Republican votes," Durbin said. He noted that the top Republicans insisted that the border issue be part of a legal debate and called it "a very difficult area, which should be done by children.
One word of hope - Senen Robert Menendez, D-N.J., Another actor of foreign negotiations - said it was too early to pass a comprehensive law this year. - AP
