A coalition of immigration groups and former Trump officials are urging congressional leaders to take action to block an amnesty push in the lame-duck session of Congress.
Durbin said there are four or five Republicans who would support it, but Democrats need"10 Republicans who will step up and join us in this effort" to overcome a filibuster., however, said that while the short-term goal was the DREAM Act, the ultimate goal is much broader, but that could wait for the next Senate.
Meanwhile, there are a number of other potential immigration pushes in the work on the legal immigration front -- including a potential vote on the EAGLE Act, which would end per-country caps on employment-based visas and has bipartisan support.The signatories cited polling that they said shows over 60% of midterm voters wanted Congress to focus on securing the border and enforcing immigration law, while less than 10% believe a pathway to citizenship should be at the top of the agenda.
