For weeks, months since President Trump's announcement, I have come to the floor and asked: For goodness' sake, can't we agree--Democrats and Republicans--to fix this problem? President Trump challenged us: Do your job, Congress. Pass a law. That is what we are supposed to do. Here we are, 3 months later, and it hasn't been done. What I hear from the other side of the aisle is, give us a little more time; we will try to get to it next year. March 5, 2018, DACA is over and finished. Waiting several weeks is bad enough. Waiting several months is unacceptable.
