“The last four years he had a pesadilla for the immigrants; that pesadilla ends today, ”said Senator Bob Menéndez (Democrat for New Jersey) during a panel discussion on the project. “It’s time to start a new chapter,” he said.
The new scenario, which has been underway since Biden’s Victoria election last November 3, includes an initiative similar to the one approved on June 27, 2013, in which the Senate launched a pilot project by the nominated group of the Ocho (integrated by four Democratic and four Republican senators), between them Menéndez.
The plan includes a legalization similar to the one presented by Biden’s office March, with the promised promise to end the policy of tolerance imposed by Donald Trump on a wave of executive orders and memoranda.

What do you think about now
The Biden team dio to conquer the martesjo a migration plan forest that, in addition to a truck to the city for the majority of the 11 million undocumented, a priority in the protection of dreamers, beneficiaries of TPS and essential workers.
The initiative consists of the legalization of two fireplaces:
- Documented that will be established in the United States by January 1, 2021 or before, a collection of criminal and pagan antiquities. Through the payment of a multi-purpose residence at a provisional legal residence for five years at the end of the qualifying periods for the permanent residence (Groenkaart).

The possible scenarios
Menéndez, the Democrat who has moved the Biden Migration Plan in Congress with his cargo, confirmed the youths who will lead the legislative effort in the Camera Alta to present the Biden-Harris Administration’s project, which will build a a just, humane and functional immigration system ”.
Dijo that the plan “not only treat” to repair the deficient migration system “will build a better one that reunites the families, as the documented community of the blacks and the ponga in a truck has the right, defending human rights, abortion the fundamental causes of migration and include a frontier security strategy that has been made ”.
Dejó made it clear, without embarrassment, that the project “is being prepared so that it can be presented officially in the Senate, a phase that can take place on weekends, quizzes.
“I have no luck”, says Univision Notices a Democrat source who is not authorized to talk to the press. “There are a lot of conversations going on with various groups that participate and participate in the process, including the Republicans,” he said.
Another Democratic analyst is aware of the negotiations on the migration reform plan in the Chamber of Representatives, saying that “it is hoped that the project will advance and that there will be eight votes”. Agrego that at these times is subject to the necessary votes for approval, “including the support of some Republicans”, but if the time passes and does not live up to the plenary, we will not have guarantees to meet the 218 votes required for approval.
“Another key element in this process is the response of civil society”, says the source. “While more pressure is being exerted on Congress over the reform, there are more probabilities that it will be approved in both chambers,” he added.
Cuesta arriba
Menéndez’s proposal recognizes that this phase of negotiations presents a high degree of difficulty. “I have very clear, in my experience with the Ocho Group (which elaborated the migration reform plan in June 2013 and approved by the Senate) that it would be difficult to approve it in Congress.”
“Without embarrassment, there is nothing more than a moral and economic imperative to crack down on the possible antics,” he said.
To do so, Democrats demand at least the vote of 9 Republican senators and so far no one has confirmed it.
Another Democrat, who also had a poor condition of anonymity, said that “migratory reform should be voted on later this year”, because in 2022 the battle for control of the Congress will be over in the medium term papers, which by lo general pierde el gobierno que recién llega a la Casa Blanca.

“We believe that President Biden has given priority to a wide-ranging discussion on immigration that includes the Dreamers, visa reform, frontier security and the undocumented population,” doubled Daniel Garza, president of the Liberal Initiative, a conservative group is inclined towards the republican values.
“Nowadays, it is fundamental that legislators, both men and women, be united in the conversation, demonstrate leadership and work together to approve sensational solutions in areas that have common points,” he said.
