House Republicans work to craft Dreamer immigration deal

House Republicans work to craft Dreamer immigration dealU.S. House of Representatives Republicans on Wednesday worked to come up with legislation protecting "Dreamer" immigrants from deportation while meeting President Donald Trump's demands for tougher border security and possibly new limits on legal migration. With a group of centrist Republicans threatening to force debate this month on a series of immigration bills that could result in one that most in the party do not like, the pressure was on House Speaker Paul Ryan to craft a measure that would avoid brewing revolts from opposing wings. "We’re still not in a situation where there is an agreement," said Representative Mark Meadows after a nearly two-hour meeting of Republican lawmakers in Ryan's office.
