Objection to DREAM Act
Senator
Durbin asked unanimous consent that the Judiciary Committee be discharged from
further consideration of S.1615, the Dream Act of 2017, and that the Senate
take up and pass the bill.
Senator
Tillis asked that the request be modified so that the Senate resume consideration
of H.R.2579, that the pending amendments be withdrawn with the exception of the
Grassley amendment #1959 (“SECURE and SUCCEED Act”); that the
Grassley amendment be agreed to; and the bill, as amended, be considered read a
third time and passed.
Senator
Durbin objected to the modification and Senator Tillis objected to the original
request.
The
Senate has resumed consideration of the motion to proceed to S.1519, the
FY18 National Defense Authorization Act.
