General Discussion

...but it's not really a mystery.

Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.) rejected the latest Republican offer Tuesday afternoon but suggested it could be improved through further negotiation.

He and other Democrats said the Republican offer they received earlier Tuesday fell short because it did not include Democrats’ demanded reforms to ICE and Customs and Border Protection (CBP), such as requiring federal immigration officers to obtain judicial warrants and prohibiting federal agents from wearing masks.

“We have to rein in ICE and stop the violence. We need reform,” Schumer said at a press conference after meeting with his Democratic colleagues at lunch. “Every one of my colleagues, every one, A, believes we should be unified, and, B, we need reforms of ICE — every single one.”

Schumer said Democrats would send a counteroffer.

“They sent us an offer, and we’ll be sending them an offer back, and I can assure you it will contain significant reform in it,” he said.
