Sorry to bring this bad news but no immigration provisions in the reconciliation bill are allowed says the parliamentarian.

I doubt that the Dems will overrule her so this is effectively over.

"Lawmakers and advocates have vowed to offer alternative arguments to the parliamentarian."

more drama is coming ....... is not over yet .....

lau ja barbadi.. eekdum satyanash. wtf
cmon bajrangbali do something !!

Echoed by Durbin & Padilla: "Senate Democrats have prepared an alternative proposal for the Parliamentarian’s consideration in the coming days.”

grab some popcorn for this .....

Schumer: “We are deeply disappointed in this decision but the fight to provide lawful status for immigrants in budget reconciliation continues…Democrats have prepared alternate proposals and will be holding additional meetings with the Senate parliamentarian in the coming days.”

some hope still there.. maybe

technically harris can overrule elizabeth ..... but they need to be sure about manchin n sinema other two idiots

It’s a very tough road ahead now. The initial Dream Act was introduced in 2000 and hasn’t made it through Congress in the last two decades. Without reconciliation, the Repubs will filibuster dem’s immigration plan to death. It’s good to have hope but people should start looking for alternative ways to gain residency.

yes pandeyji, there are ways but I dont think the dems have the cojones to overrule the senate parliamentarian. Republicans on the other hand (for good or bad reason) would do what ever to pass their agendas. ie: Amy Coney Barett .

I hope the dems prove me wrong.

yeah they truly dont have cojones ..... moscow mitch achieved so much for republicans ...... dems have white house house n senate still act like some whinies ...... n actually right now its like 48 dems n 52 repubcs (effin manchin n sinema)

what a comedy party lol .........

if they dont achieve anything significant this time ..... they will lose 2022 midterm big time ..... n i will be very happy when they do .......
