‘A Joke’
Second-ranking Senate Republican John Cornyn of Texas, who isn’t part of the group, said he spoke with Trump and the president told him the negotiators need to get wider approval of the plan before moving ahead.
Immigration hardliner Senator Tom Cotton, a Trump ally, called the proposal “a joke,” saying it didn’t go far enough in particular to end immigration family preferences.
Cotton said the plan falls short of Trump’s request for border wall funds. It would limit immigrants with legal residency status from sponsoring adult children for immigration until they become citizens, he said. And, it would reallocate the diversity visas for other uses, said Cotton of Arkansas.
