Democrats say no Dreamer solution after Kelly meeting

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Two Democratic lawmakers said White House chief of staff John Kelly offered no legislative solutions to protect people brought to the United States illegally as children in a meeting on Wednesday with the Congressional Hispanic Caucus.

Democratic Senator Bob Menendez told Reuters the White House is making unacceptable demands on immigration measures related to “Dreamer” protections. Luis Gutierrez, a Democratic congressman, said the caucus’ meeting with Kelly was positive but he offered no solution to the immigration standoff.

you say on your backsides in the 2016 election. If you’d been real friends, you’d have gone to the polls and voted.

Fine friends you’ve proved to be...

For example, just look at this thread and the responses on JPR...remembering JPR was established by a majority of disaffected DU'ers....of course they have morphed into a Kremlin tool, but that's a whole other story:

Bitter, nasty tools. And they come over to DU to spread their "messages"
