YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) on Tuesday said Democrats would "very shortly" present Republicans with a "detailed" proposal on changes to immigration enforcement policies.

"If Leader Thune negotiates in good faith, we can get it done," he told reporters when asked whether there will be enough time to finalize a deal before the Homeland Security Department's stopgap funding expires on Feb. 13. "We expect to present to the Republicans, a very serious detailed proposal very shortly."

Democrats want tighter rules governing the use of warrants, a uniform code of conduct for federal officers, a ban on agents wearing masks, and a requirement that agents wear body cameras.

Republicans want to attach the SAVE Act, which would require proof of citizenship to register to vote, a proposal Sen. Schumer flatly rejected, calling it an "abomination."

"It's Jim Crow 2.0 across the country," he said. "We are going to do everything we can to stop it."
