And what Republicans must understand is that, yes, they have
a 51-to-49 majority here in the Senate, but you need 60 votes to pass
this type of legislation. You need 60 votes, and that means you cannot
do it alone. You cannot give the Democratic caucus a fait accompli and
expect Democrats to say: Oh, yes, sir, we are going to follow you. This
requires bipartisan discussion on the parity issue and domestic
spending and bipartisan discussion on DACA. We have a strong majority of Members of the Senate who support a
Dreamers piece of legislation and a path toward citizenship. We have a
strong majority of the American people and a strong majority of Members
of the Senate who want disaster relief.
