DACA Continued

Two senators revealed the plan for DACA that would end up protecting the young kids who were brought into the United States and the plan for adding for security to the borders. The downside is that Donald Trump is against any sort of deal unless he gets his wall. He blames the Democratic Party for the fact that they cannot come up with a compromise and deal to deal with the situation. Senator John McCain (Republican) and Senator Chris Coons (Democrat) put a proposal in last month that gives way for Dreamers to gain citizenship and they also had a plan to up the border security. The McCain-Coons Bill, as it is called, is created in order to avert the government shutdown if they do not come into agreement on Thursday February 8th. The bill does not include funding for the wall, which is what Trump wants in order to sign off on a Bill but according to the article there is enough support from both parties that the bill could possibly pass.
There is controversy however because Trump could Veto the bill if it does pass and then the problem would be if they could overturn the Veto. If it does come down to this then Congress would have to make a decision. The bill would solve the many problems that are going on in the Country and it will put many people at ease.
