this. i don t know if you re going to see even if you re seeing him vote that way, in the grand scheme of things, what we re talking about is a whole group of people that are hoping that the government works this out and it s not going to happen. i have to say i m running down the names of the yes republicans offen the compromise, alexander, collins, flake, gardner, mrk carkowsky, rounds. all of those who would be considered conservative right. the substance was to the left of the durbin bill that was announced in january. i don t think even if it passed the senate it was going to get a majority in the house. why is daca so difficult? there are people on the left i think the left has found their way to accepting the wall. so do i. i don t think it s that, i think that now we have family reunification or so-called chain migration. and they want the issue. they ll throw whatever stuff
so different from the house version coming from chairman goodlatte and others. how do you see the two sides, the parties and the houses, coming together to get something done. the bill that works is the goodlatte proposal. it may not be perfect but it will actually work and do the things president trump has talked about doing. unfortunately the durbin bill, it s just not going to work. it s that same thing we ve seen before. the senate is prepared to vote for bills as long as they don t work. you produce a bill that would actually effectively end illegality. that s all we are talking about. who is in of illegal immigrants immigration? anybody? why keep defending it? why keep blocking the laws? create a system that has no illegality that brings in people legally and that we vet them and make sure they are not criminals, that they are people

congress also has to remember that they re a co-equal branch of government. you hear lindsey graham saying there in those comments is, look, we, in congress, could probably come to a, you know, a great consensus. there has been folks that have signed on to the graham/durbin bill, folks negotiated this good faith bill in the senate and democrats and republicans, i believe, in the house want to and can come to a consensus. the only person here that the only entity that has not been able to in good faith come to the table is the white house. if the governent were to shut down, it would absolutely be at the hands and the fault of the white house, not democrats in congress as the republicans would like for you to think. all right, margaret hoover, paul ryan, house leadership put together this cr, this temporary funding bill, that includes a long-term extension for the children s health insurance program. correct? the president this morning goes on twitter and says this, seems to indicat
