His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Updated at 5:06 p.m. ET\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The federal government is back open for business on Tuesday, but the immigration fight that brought it to a three-day shutdown is far from over. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Monday, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/579603941\">Congress passed a stopgap spending bill\u003c/a> that funds the government through Feb. 8, with Democrats crossing over to back the measure in exchange for assurances that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., would bring an immigration bill to the floor. McConnell said he would pursue legislation to address the legal status of roughly 700,000 immigrants protected by the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which will expire in March, as well as border security and other issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump weighed in on Twitter on Tuesday morning \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/955806333667807232\">to congratulate his staff\u003c/a> for its work over the past several days, after much chatter about how little the president himself was involved in the deal-making. Trump \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/955795912374267907\">also acknowledged\u003c/a> the big task ahead on working out an immigration deal in 16 days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/955806333667807232\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Congress also needs to agree on a long-term funding plan, which is thought to be close at hand, but there are several reasons why finding a bipartisan solution on immigration is far from easy. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To begin with, Trump has been inconsistent on what kind of immigration bill he would sign, despite an insistence otherwise from White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Monday. The broad framework is that, in exchange for a permanent fix for DACA, the president wants funding for the border wall he touted frequently during the campaign, along with an end to what he calls chain migration — or legal immigrants bringing other family members to the U.S. — and an end to the visa lottery system. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders said Tuesday that the bipartisan compromise negotiated by Sens. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz.; Lindsey Graham, R-S.C.; and Dick Durbin, D-Ill., was \"totally unacceptable to the president and should be declared dead on arrival\" because it doesn't meet those benchmarks. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"RgyODoGrN3sWzLy3fYlBTsijaERRKwct\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But when Trump held a bipartisan discussion with lawmakers earlier this month, he signaled that he would sign whatever bill Congress sent him, even if he wasn't \"in love with\" it and that he would take any backlash from both sides. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., has said that he offered Trump funding for his border wall on Friday, hours before the shutdown started, as part of a deal for DACA protections but that Trump's chief of staff, John Kelly, later called to say the deal was off. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schumer reiterated Tuesday that the wall was now off the table and argued that Trump's inability to negotiate was what had led to the shutdown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tensions were already inflamed after Trump reportedly used a vulgarity to refer to African countries and disparaged Haiti during a discussion of U.S. visa and immigration policies with a bipartisan group of senators earlier this month. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Monday, Sanders wouldn't commit to Trump's supporting a path to citizenship, instead of simply a legal status for the \"DREAMers.\" That is the common name given to those who are in the U.S. illegally after entering the country as children. For Democrats, and even some Republicans, a status short of citizenship could be a nonstarter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"c0YH3zEUDpFtYlN6f5b6esjxTvDi6EQZ\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And even if a bill passes the Senate, it could have a much tougher time in the House, where Republicans say they will not be bound by any deal made in the Senate. The last time the Senate passed a major immigration overhaul bill, in 2013, it died a year later in the House.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump did meet with six GOP senators on Monday to discuss \"the next steps on responsible immigration reform.\" That group included immigration hard-liners such as Sens. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., and David Perdue, R-Ga., who were not members of the bipartisan group that has been working to find a solution palpable to both sides. Not in attendance were Graham and Flake, who are part of the bipartisan group, but Sen. James Lankford, R-Okla., who has spoken out in favor of protecting DACA recipients, was there. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Graham — once a strident opponent of Trump's who has developed a cozy relationship with the president over the past few months — said over the weekend that he is skeptical of many of the president's advisers, especially White House senior policy aide Stephen Miller, who push Trump in a conservative direction on immigration as soon as he seems to want a compromise. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president also conferred with two conservative Democrats at the White House on Monday, Sens. Joe Manchin of West Virginia and the newly elected Doug Jones of Alabama. Upon returning to the Capitol, they said that specifics weren't discussed but sounded optimistic that an immigration deal could be reached.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"DVDelRrGX6AQPty2BFXMwRDdblwjevvC\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think he's very much committed to relieving this DACA challenge that we all have. I don't think anyone wants to be in it, no one is insensitive about that. In talking with his chief of staff, Gen. Kelly, I'm just hopeful we can find that pathway forward. ... The House is going to have to do their thing, but the Senate is in a position to move forward, and he's hoping that they'll come to something that they can all live with,\" said Manchin, who faces a tough re-election campaign in November. He's one of 10 Democrats running again in states that Trump won in 2016. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Further direct talks with Trump may have to wait. He is slated to travel to Davos, Switzerland, this week for the World Economic Forum. The president's first State of the Union address on Jan. 30 provides him a highly visible opportunity to expand on what he wants in a bill, just over a week before the critical deadline. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While some Democrats and progressive groups said that Schumer \"caved,\" more moderate lawmakers expressed optimism that McConnell would keep his promise to bring a bill to the floor. That is despite the fact that he hasn't yet fulfilled pledges to other lawmakers in exchange for their votes in December on the GOP tax bill. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's one thing to make a promise behind closed doors in a conversation. It's another thing to be before C-SPAN and before the whole world saying, 'I will bring a bill forward, it will be neutral, it will be an open, level playing field.' That's a commitment,\" Sen. Angus King, I-Maine, who caucuses with Democrats, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/01/22/579787606/sen-angus-king-reacts-to-proposed-short-term-funding-deal\">told NPR's All Things Considered\u003c/a>\u003cem> \u003c/em>on Monday\u003cem>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaking after Senate lunches on Tuesday, McConnell also stood behind his promise. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I intend to keep my word,\" the majority leader said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

The broad framework is that, in exchange for a permanent fix for DACA, the president wants funding for the border wall he touted frequently during the campaign, along with an end to what he calls chain migration — or legal immigrants bringing other family members to the U.S. — and an end to the visa lottery system. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders said Tuesday that the bipartisan compromise negotiated by Sens. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz.; Lindsey Graham, R-S.C.; and Dick Durbin, D-Ill., was \"totally unacceptable to the president and should be declared dead on arrival\" because it doesn't meet those benchmarks. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But when Trump held a bipartisan discussion with lawmakers earlier this month, he signaled that he would sign whatever bill Congress sent him, even if he wasn't \"in love with\" it and that he would take any backlash from both sides. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., has said that he offered Trump funding for his border wall on Friday, hours before the shutdown started, as part of a deal for DACA protections but that Trump's chief of staff, John Kelly, later called to say the deal was off. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schumer reiterated Tuesday that the wall was now off the table and argued that Trump's inability to negotiate was what had led to the shutdown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tensions were already inflamed after Trump reportedly used a vulgarity to refer to African countries and disparaged Haiti during a discussion of U.S. visa and immigration policies with a bipartisan group of senators earlier this month. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Monday, Sanders wouldn't commit to Trump's supporting a path to citizenship, instead of simply a legal status for the \"DREAMers.\" That is the common name given to those who are in the U.S. illegally after entering the country as children. For Democrats, and even some Republicans, a status short of citizenship could be a nonstarter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And even if a bill passes the Senate, it could have a much tougher time in the House, where Republicans say they will not be bound by any deal made in the Senate. The last time the Senate passed a major immigration overhaul bill, in 2013, it died a year later in the House.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump did meet with six GOP senators on Monday to discuss \"the next steps on responsible immigration reform.\" That group included immigration hard-liners such as Sens. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., and David Perdue, R-Ga., who were not members of the bipartisan group that has been working to find a solution palpable to both sides. Not in attendance were Graham and Flake, who are part of the bipartisan group, but Sen. James Lankford, R-Okla., who has spoken out in favor of protecting DACA recipients, was there. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Graham — once a strident opponent of Trump's who has developed a cozy relationship with the president over the past few months — said over the weekend that he is skeptical of many of the president's advisers, especially White House senior policy aide Stephen Miller, who push Trump in a conservative direction on immigration as soon as he seems to want a compromise. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president also conferred with two conservative Democrats at the White House on Monday, Sens. Joe Manchin of West Virginia and the newly elected Doug Jones of Alabama. Upon returning to the Capitol, they said that specifics weren't discussed but sounded optimistic that an immigration deal could be reached.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think he's very much committed to relieving this DACA challenge that we all have. I don't think anyone wants to be in it, no one is insensitive about that. In talking with his chief of staff, Gen. Kelly, I'm just hopeful we can find that pathway forward. ... The House is going to have to do their thing, but the Senate is in a position to move forward, and he's hoping that they'll come to something that they can all live with,\" said Manchin, who faces a tough re-election campaign in November. He's one of 10 Democrats running again in states that Trump won in 2016. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Further direct talks with Trump may have to wait. He is slated to travel to Davos, Switzerland, this week for the World Economic Forum. The president's first State of the Union address on Jan. 30 provides him a highly visible opportunity to expand on what he wants in a bill, just over a week before the critical deadline. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While some Democrats and progressive groups said that Schumer \"caved,\" more moderate lawmakers expressed optimism that McConnell would keep his promise to bring a bill to the floor. That is despite the fact that he hasn't yet fulfilled pledges to other lawmakers in exchange for their votes in December on the GOP tax bill. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's one thing to make a promise behind closed doors in a conversation. It's another thing to be before C-SPAN and before the whole world saying, 'I will bring a bill forward, it will be neutral, it will be an open, level playing field.' That's a commitment,\" Sen. Angus King, I-Maine, who caucuses with Democrats, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/01/22/579787606/sen-angus-king-reacts-to-proposed-short-term-funding-deal\">told NPR's All Things Considered\u003c/a>\u003cem> \u003c/em>on Monday\u003cem>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaking after Senate lunches on Tuesday, McConnell also stood behind his promise. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Schumer has \u003ca href=\"https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/government-shutdown-likelihood-grows-amid-senate-standoff-n839301\">reportedly proposed\u003c/a> a four- or five-day stopgap measure, a proposal that the White House appeared to be expressing disapproval of with its clarification.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The meeting took place less than 12 hours before the midnight deadline for Congress to pass a new spending bill.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., accused Democrats of using immigration as a bargaining chip in the fight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”VoZykVzVKsi3BDWalhDBiT4hAmh17iuj”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The Senate is now just hours away from an entirely avoidable government shutdown,” McConnell said Friday morning on the Senate floor. “The craziness of this seems to be dawning on my friend, the Democratic leader.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Senate Democrats insist they will not vote for a stopgap measure without an agreement for long-term increases in military and domestic spending and a pathway to citizenship for roughly 700,000 immigrants. Those are individuals who are in the country illegally after being brought here as children and are enrolled in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program established by the Obama administration. Those protections from deportation are set to begin expiring in March after the Trump administration announced it was rescinding DACA last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Government Funding Bill past last night in the House of Representatives. Now Democrats are needed if it is to pass in the Senate – but they want illegal immigration and weak borders. Shutdown coming? We need more Republican victories in 2018!” \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/954323750949982208\">Trump tweeted at 7:04 a.m. ET.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats launched into a last-minute flurry of talks late Thursday after a House vote to approve a short-term spending bill to keep the government open until Feb. 16 and fund the popular Children’s Health Insurance Program, or CHIP, for six years. Schumer and McConnell say they want to avoid a shutdown, but both leaders have become increasingly insistent that they are unwilling to compromise on their demands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McConnell and other Republicans say they have more than a month to agree to an immigration package before DACA is set to expire. They are calling on Democrats to back the short-term bill in order to give them more time to negotiate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans are already dubbing it the “\u003ca href=\"https://www.schumershutdown.com/\">Schumer Shutdown\u003c/a>.” The minority leader has warned Republicans that they will not have enough Democratic votes to break the 60-vote filibuster threshold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic Sens. Joe Manchin, W.Va.; Joe Donnelly, Ind.; and Heidi Heitkamp, N.D. — all three in competitive re-election races from states that Trump won — indicated they would vote for the bill. But McConnell still needs more Democrats than that to cross over in order to get to the 60 votes he needs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it is unlikely that McConnell even has a simple majority of Republicans to support a House-passed stopgap measure to keep the government running until Feb. 16. Republican Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Jeff Flake of Arizona have indicated they will oppose it, and at least two other GOP senators remain undecided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am not going to support continuing this fiasco for 30 more days by voting for a continuing resolution,” Graham said Thursday. “It’s time Congress stop the cycle of dysfunction, grow up and act consistent with the values of a great nation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”woy64ndP7n8t5cmTu0g4x2o0atnxGviR”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Senate convened Friday morning, but lawmakers and aides said there is no consensus on how to head off the impending midnight partial government shutdown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., who runs Senate Democrats’ 2018 campaign operation, told NPR’s \u003cem>Morning Edition \u003c/em>that Democrats would support a stopgap measure for three to four days to keep the government running and give negotiators more time to clinch deals in stalled immigration and budget talks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not voting for a government shutdown. I’m voting to get an agreement to move forward,” Van Hollen said. “Let’s stay in. Let’s get it done.” The White House and Senate GOP leaders have not indicated whether they would accept that offer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Van Hollen also said Trump, not the Democrats, will shoulder the blame if a shutdown occurs. “If the president of the United States, whether by design or incompetence is going to shut down the government, that is a big problem,” Van Hollen said. “I hope he will show some leadership; he says he’s the great negotiator.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>New data seem to agree.

The rest of the participants either blamed both equally or had no opinion. A \u003ca href=\"http://www.cnn.com/2018/01/19/politics/cnn-poll-shutdown-trump-immigration-daca/index.html\">CNN poll\u003c/a> found similar numbers blaming the president and Republicans in Congress over Democrats, though 56 percent said approving a budget deal was more important than a DACA deal, while just over a third said they wanted an immigration compromise included.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/579074218/579081728\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shutdowns are usually the product of divided government. A midnight shutdown would be the first time one occurred when the same party controlled both chambers of Congress and the White House.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the Trump White House is working hard to shift blame back to the Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is no way you could lay this at the feet of the president of the United States,” said Mick Mulvaney, director of the Office of Management and Budget, in a press conference on Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The reality is Republicans are united in keeping the government open. Democrats are united in trying to shut it down,” White House Legislative Affairs Director Marc Short \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/01/19/579076336/clock-ticks-down-toward-a-midnight-government-shutdown\">told NPR’s \u003cem>Morning Edition\u003c/em>\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Short downplayed the merits of an even shorter stopgap, arguing that negotiators need more time to reach an immigration deal to determine the fate of the hundreds of thousands of people in the DACA program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think we’re making progress on DACA, but I think it’s unrealistic to think there’s going to be a solution in the next five days,” Short said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans have also sought to call attention to what they see as hypocrisy from the Democratic leadership, who loudly criticized Republicans in 2013 when the government last shut down, over Affordable Care Act disagreements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The House \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/01/18/578838003/trump-tweet-scrambles-efforts-efforts-to-avert-a-government-shutdown\">passed the four-week stopgap on Thursday\u003c/a>, 230-197, with just six Democrats voting with Republicans. The measure includes a six-year renewal of the popular Children’s Health Insurance Program and further delays of certain taxes under the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is ostensibly Democratic support for all of those provisions, but the vast majority of Democrats oppose the stopgap because of the ongoing inability to reach a bipartisan immigration deal. Democrats are also withholding support for a longer-term spending deal until an immigration deal is clinched.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This vote should be a no-brainer,” McConnell said Friday morning on the Senate floor. “And it would be, except the Democratic leader has convinced his members to filibuster any funding bill that doesn’t include legislation they are demanding for people who came into the United States illegally.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president has been an erratic negotiator in recent days, throwing already-contentious talks into disarray. After initially suggesting he would support any bipartisan proposal lawmakers could come up with, Trump rejected a proposal authored by Graham, a Republican, and Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin, D-Ill., at the advice of more conservative lawmakers and his own top White House aides.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump was also seemingly at odds with his own chief of staff, John Kelly, over the president’s continued support for building a physical barrier along the U.S.-Mexico border. Kelly told Fox News that Trump was “flexible” on the wall, to which Trump later \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/953948941674078208\">tweeted\u003c/a>: “The Wall is the Wall, it has never changed or evolved from the first day I conceived of it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11643013\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11643013\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/GettyImages-906702766-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"U.S. President Donald Trump waves as he walks towards the Oval Office after he returned to the White House January 17, 2018 in Washington, DC.

Those protections from deportation are set to begin expiring in March after the Trump administration announced it was rescinding DACA last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Government Funding Bill past last night in the House of Representatives. Now Democrats are needed if it is to pass in the Senate – but they want illegal immigration and weak borders. Shutdown coming? We need more Republican victories in 2018!” \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/954323750949982208\">Trump tweeted at 7:04 a.m. ET.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats launched into a last-minute flurry of talks late Thursday after a House vote to approve a short-term spending bill to keep the government open until Feb. 16 and fund the popular Children’s Health Insurance Program, or CHIP, for six years. Schumer and McConnell say they want to avoid a shutdown, but both leaders have become increasingly insistent that they are unwilling to compromise on their demands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McConnell and other Republicans say they have more than a month to agree to an immigration package before DACA is set to expire. They are calling on Democrats to back the short-term bill in order to give them more time to negotiate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans are already dubbing it the “\u003ca href=\"https://www.schumershutdown.com/\">Schumer Shutdown\u003c/a>.” The minority leader has warned Republicans that they will not have enough Democratic votes to break the 60-vote filibuster threshold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic Sens. Joe Manchin, W.Va.; Joe Donnelly, Ind.; and Heidi Heitkamp, N.D. — all three in competitive re-election races from states that Trump won — indicated they would vote for the bill. But McConnell still needs more Democrats than that to cross over in order to get to the 60 votes he needs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it is unlikely that McConnell even has a simple majority of Republicans to support a House-passed stopgap measure to keep the government running until Feb. 16. Republican Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Jeff Flake of Arizona have indicated they will oppose it, and at least two other GOP senators remain undecided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am not going to support continuing this fiasco for 30 more days by voting for a continuing resolution,” Graham said Thursday. “It’s time Congress stop the cycle of dysfunction, grow up and act consistent with the values of a great nation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Senate convened Friday morning, but lawmakers and aides said there is no consensus on how to head off the impending midnight partial government shutdown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., who runs Senate Democrats’ 2018 campaign operation, told NPR’s \u003cem>Morning Edition \u003c/em>that Democrats would support a stopgap measure for three to four days to keep the government running and give negotiators more time to clinch deals in stalled immigration and budget talks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not voting for a government shutdown. I’m voting to get an agreement to move forward,” Van Hollen said. “Let’s stay in. Let’s get it done.” The White House and Senate GOP leaders have not indicated whether they would accept that offer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Van Hollen also said Trump, not the Democrats, will shoulder the blame if a shutdown occurs. “If the president of the United States, whether by design or incompetence is going to shut down the government, that is a big problem,” Van Hollen said. “I hope he will show some leadership; he says he’s the great negotiator.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>New data seem to agree. A \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/page/2010-2019/WashingtonPost/2018/01/19/National-Politics/Polling/release_506.xml?tid=a_mcntx\">Washington Post-ABC News poll\u003c/a> out Friday found that 48 percent of Americans would blame Trump and Republicans for a shutdown, compared with 28 percent who would blame Democrats. The rest of the participants either blamed both equally or had no opinion. A \u003ca href=\"http://www.cnn.com/2018/01/19/politics/cnn-poll-shutdown-trump-immigration-daca/index.html\">CNN poll\u003c/a> found similar numbers blaming the president and Republicans in Congress over Democrats, though 56 percent said approving a budget deal was more important than a DACA deal, while just over a third said they wanted an immigration compromise included.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/579074218/579081728\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shutdowns are usually the product of divided government.

The measure includes a six-year renewal of the popular Children’s Health Insurance Program and further delays of certain taxes under the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is ostensibly Democratic support for all of those provisions, but the vast majority of Democrats oppose the stopgap because of the ongoing inability to reach a bipartisan immigration deal. Democrats are also withholding support for a longer-term spending deal until an immigration deal is clinched.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This vote should be a no-brainer,” McConnell said Friday morning on the Senate floor. “And it would be, except the Democratic leader has convinced his members to filibuster any funding bill that doesn’t include legislation they are demanding for people who came into the United States illegally.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president has been an erratic negotiator in recent days, throwing already-contentious talks into disarray. After initially suggesting he would support any bipartisan proposal lawmakers could come up with, Trump rejected a proposal authored by Graham, a Republican, and Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin, D-Ill., at the advice of more conservative lawmakers and his own top White House aides.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump was also seemingly at odds with his own chief of staff, John Kelly, over the president’s continued support for building a physical barrier along the U.S.-Mexico border. Kelly told Fox News that Trump was “flexible” on the wall, to which Trump later \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/953948941674078208\">tweeted\u003c/a>: “The Wall is the Wall, it has never changed or evolved from the first day I conceived of it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11643013\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11643013\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/GettyImages-906702766-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"U.S. President Donald Trump waves as he walks towards the Oval Office after he returned to the White House January 17, 2018 in Washington, DC.

However, hundreds of thousands of federal workers would face furloughs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The military would still go to work, they will not get paid. The border will still be patrolled, they will not get paid,” said Mulvaney, the director of the Office of Management and Budget. “Folks will still be fighting the fires out West, they will not get paid.

That is looking more and more difficult after most Democrats and at least three Republicans senators have said they won’t vote for the bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure passed in the House, 230-197 with 11 Republicans voting against the bill and 6 Democrats voting for it, after House Freedom Caucus members reached a deal to vote for the bill. The group’s chairman Mark Meadows, R-N.C., had initially claimed enough of his members would withhold support that the bill would fail with GOP votes only, but about an hour before the vote was expected to begin Meadows told reporters he received enough concessions from House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., including plans for future votes on additional military funding, that he would recommend his caucus vote for the bill. And Thursday evening, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/freedomcaucus/status/954132162760069120\">the group said on Twitter\u003c/a> that a majority of its members has decided to support the stop-gap measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”O8QGZam90AaEjlzrDO1nzlidR9zEqyV5″]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats, however, want to include a fix for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program (DACA), set to expire in March, to protect the roughly 700,000 enrollees in the program who were brought to the U.S. illegally as children. And House Democrats have indicated they won’t encourage their members to vote for the bill in order to bail out Republicans if the GOP falls short of the votes needed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some Senate Republicans have already said they won’t support the bill. Republicans only have a 51-49 advantage, with Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., possibly unavailable due to medical issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., who was one of the lawmakers pushing for a bipartisan immigration deal to go along with a funding bill, reiterated Thursday evening he would oppose any short-term measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am not going to support continuing this fiasco for 30 more days by voting for a continuing resolution,” Graham said. “It’s time Congress stop the cycle of dysfunction, grow up, and act consistent with the values of a great nation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On top of that, President Trump injected fresh confusion into tense negotiations to avert an impending shutdown with a Thursday morning tweet that indicated he opposed the measure the White House had previously signaled support for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“CHIP should be part of a long term solution, not a 30 Day, or short term, extension!” Trump tweeted Thursday morning. The House funding bill includes a six-year renewal of the popular Children’s Health Insurance Program, which GOP leaders included as a potential sweetener to get the votes they need to pass the stop-gap measure and to force Democrats to vote against the program they’re eager to reauthorize.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/953984671674662912\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ryan downplayed the tweet to reporters Thursday morning. “I am sure where he stands. He fully supports passing this legislation,” Ryan countered, noting that he spoke to the president after the tweet was posted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s tweet also contradicted the White House’s already stated position in favor of the stop-gap bill. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement Thursday, White House spokesman Raj Shah said the president supports the House bill. “The President supports the continuing resolution introduced in the House. Congress needs to do its job and provide full funding of our troops and military with a two-year budget caps deal,” Shah said. “However, as the deal is negotiated, the President wants to ensure our military and national security are funded. He will not let it be held hostage by Democrats.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”ovNBjjUE1bp2FxNmzaxfbb2E9FV7eJV3″]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said Thursday morning that he anticipates the House will pass the funding bill, but its fate in the Senate is uncertain. Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn, R-Texas, said he was “not sure what the president means” when asked on \u003cem>Fox & Friends \u003c/em>about the CHIP tweet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The last-minute confusion over CHIP further complicated spending negotiations that were stalled when Trump rejected a bipartisan Senate immigration plan intended to pave the way for a long-term spending agreement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president also jabbed at Democrats in another tweet this morning over the stalled negotiations to reach a deal on spending limits for this fiscal year. “A government shutdown will be devastating to our military…something the Dems care very little about!” he tweeted. Democrats are resisting a spending deal agreement until a bipartisan immigration deal is clinched.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The immigration talks fell apart last week after Trump rejected a plan proposed by Sens. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., and Dick Durbin, D-Ill., to pair increased border security with new legal protections and a pathway to citizenship for the roughly 700,000 DACA participants who are in the country illegally after being brought here as children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”RGt5BPA3IgWAkorMfTSyLkuOBjuKPMg3″]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was during that meeting that Trump questioned why the U.S. would want more immigrants from “shithole countries” in Africa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump also weighed in Thursday on Twitter on immigration, again demanding money for a wall along the southern border with Mexico. “We need the Wall for the safety and security of our country. We need the Wall to help stop the massive inflow of drugs from Mexico, now rated the number one most dangerous country in the world. If there is no Wall, there is no Deal!,” \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/953979393180950528\">Trump tweeted\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats say they will not accept any spending bill that funds the construction of a physical border wall but they have been willing to negotiate over money for increased technology and other forms of border security.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/953979393180950528\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, a second group of negotiators, led by the second-ranking Republicans and Democrats in the House and the Senate, has stepped in to attempt to craft a new deal but the talks have been largely unsuccessful, according to several aides familiar with the talks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Durbin is one of those negotiators, but he has indicated he will vote against the stop-gap funding measure in the Senate. A growing number of Senate Democrats see the vote on the funding bill as a leverage point to try and reach a deal on immigration, even if their opposition threatens a shutdown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three centrist Democrats, Sen. Angus King of Maine (he is an independent but caucuses with Democrats) and Virginia Sens. Tim Kaine and Mark Warner all announced Thursday morning they would oppose the funding measure. All three voted in favor of the previous stop-gap measure in late December.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Congress should remain in session with no recess until we work out a long-term bipartisan budget deal that addresses all issues,” Kaine and Warner said in a joint statement in which they said they would vote for a stop-gap measure lasting just a few days to keep the government’s lights on and negotiations ongoing. Virginia is home to a large number of government employees who would be directly affected by a shutdown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”klx6cgYYTeWQbPEzIaxHvmIBURwQeSac”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The continuing resolution is just a gimmick,” Kaine said Thursday evening on NPR’s \u003cem>All Things Considered\u003c/em>. “It’s a way of saying well we can’t decide so let’s just drive by looking in the rearview mirror and do what we did yesterday.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The House needs to pass a bill Thursday in order to give the Senate time to do the same ahead of the midnight Friday deadline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One key Democratic divide in the Senate: a tactical split between the Democrats running for re-election this year in states that Trump carried, and the Democrats being mentioned as possible 2020 contenders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”GJOovzvchBeeQhNOcwR0wIWDZXNaAjJs”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2020 hopefuls like New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker, California Sen. Kamala Harris and New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand all oppose voting for a funding bill, if it doesn’t include permanent protections for DACA recipients. Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders has advocated for this, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In December, seven of the 10 Democrats running in states that Trump won in 2016 voted in favor of the funding bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigration activists have increased the pressure on Democrats to oppose any spending measure while DACA is still unresolved.

That is looking more and more difficult after most Democrats and at least three Republicans senators have said they won’t vote for the bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure passed in the House, 230-197 with 11 Republicans voting against the bill and 6 Democrats voting for it, after House Freedom Caucus members reached a deal to vote for the bill. The group’s chairman Mark Meadows, R-N.C., had initially claimed enough of his members would withhold support that the bill would fail with GOP votes only, but about an hour before the vote was expected to begin Meadows told reporters he received enough concessions from House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., including plans for future votes on additional military funding, that he would recommend his caucus vote for the bill. And Thursday evening, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/freedomcaucus/status/954132162760069120\">the group said on Twitter\u003c/a> that a majority of its members has decided to support the stop-gap measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats, however, want to include a fix for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program (DACA), set to expire in March, to protect the roughly 700,000 enrollees in the program who were brought to the U.S. illegally as children. And House Democrats have indicated they won’t encourage their members to vote for the bill in order to bail out Republicans if the GOP falls short of the votes needed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

If there is no Wall, there is no Deal!,” \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/953979393180950528\">Trump tweeted\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats say they will not accept any spending bill that funds the construction of a physical border wall but they have been willing to negotiate over money for increased technology and other forms of border security.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Judge William Alsup wrote that DACA recipients would suffer “irreparable harm” as they lose DACA protections. It’s unclear how federal officials will handle DACA renewal applications they rejected for failing to meet an Oct. 5 deadline.

Galvan was proud that all his grueling work with livestock and crops had paid off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But his euphoria was short-lived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Galvan got home he tore open an envelope waiting for him from the Department of Homeland Security. It was crushing news. He had submitted his application to renew a vital work permit for young immigrants known as “Dreamers” in plenty of time, along with a renewal fee. He received a notice back that there was a snafu over a $495 scholarship check he had submitted to pay the fee, and he promptly followed instructions to correct that. But now, this second, final notice told him his application was rejected for being late.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If Galvan can’t appeal the rejection, his work permit is set to expire Jan. 15. That would jeopardize his job tutoring junior high kids. It would affect his studies at college. It could even lead to him being deported.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What a bucket of cold water,” Galvan said, during a late-night interview in Porterville, the small California farm city where he grew up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Surrounded by a sea of orchards—including oranges now flooding U.S. markets—Porterville sits in California’s vast Central Valley. Considered one of the world’s most productive agribusiness regions, the valley depends on immigrant labor. And among those who represent the region in Congress are multiple Republican lawmakers, not least of them Rep. Kevin McCarthy, the powerful GOP majority leader whose district includes Porterville.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The work permit Galvan holds stems from his status as a recipient of \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/16/us/us-to-stop-deporting-some-illegal-immigrants.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DACA\u003c/a>, the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program whose fate rests, in no small part, in McCarthy’s hands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former President Barack Obama created DACA in 2012 to allow undocumented young people brought to the United States as children to stay legally, conditionally, until, Obama said he hoped, Congress came up with a solution to help them. Nicknamed Dreamers, this population has no sure path to legal residency, no matter how long they’ve been here or how much they accomplish. DACA has temporarily protected them from deportation and allowed them to obtain work permits. On Sept. 5 though, President Donald Trump announced that he was pulling the plug on DACA, arguing in a statement that Obama lacked authority to create the program and that policy should be “fair to American families, students, taxpayers and jobseekers.” Spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders added that unemployed Americans could possibly assume DACA recipients’ jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11642514\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 380px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11642514\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2.jpeg\" alt=\"Leydy Rangel, 22, and Eloisa Torres, 18, undocumented DACA recipients from Bakersfield, work up enthusiasm before trying to speak to House members in Washington, D.C. about a proposal to let them earn permanent legal status. \" width=\"380\" height=\"253\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2.jpeg 380w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2-160x107.jpeg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2-240x160.jpeg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2-375x250.jpeg 375w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 380px) 100vw, 380px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Leydy Rangel, 22, and Eloisa Torres, 18, undocumented DACA recipients from Bakersfield, work up enthusiasm before trying to speak to House members in Washington, D.C. about a proposal to let them earn permanent legal status. \u003ccite>(Susan Ferriss/Center for Public Integrity)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Nearly 800,000 DACA recipients were suddenly plunged into uncertainty. Dreamers whose work permits were soon to expire were given a chance to apply, one last time, for two-year renewals by Oct. 5. Many missed the tight deadline or had applications they say were denied unfairly. If nothing changes, after March, all DACA recipients will begin to lose permits in waves as each card expires.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The situation remains up in the air. Despite his harsh rhetoric claiming Dreamers occupy Americans’ jobs, Trump too challenged Congress to come up with a legislative fix with “heart” to help Dreamers before the March deadline. A flurry of negotiations to pass such a bill collapsed just prior to the holiday break. GOP leaders now say Congress will take up DACA again this month, as part of broader debate over Trump’s demands for more border wall investments and cuts in family-based immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the politics are complicated, and they’re especially complicated here in California, home to at least a quarter of Dreamers. Most polling, from ABC to Fox News, shows that 60 to upwards of 80 percent of Americans think Dreamers should get a chance to stay and become legalized. In and around Porterville, Dreamers and their backers angrily question why McCarthy and fellow congressmen from California’s Central Valley aren’t vigorously pushing for a legislative fix — pronto — because so many Dreamers’ lives hang in the balance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCarthy declined an interview but in careful language has backed crafting a DACA fix as long as it’s coupled with more investments in border security measures. He said in a statement that he supported Trump’s position and that Congress is working on a “lawful solution to this problem.” It’s clear to everyone that McCarthy is not publicly leading a passionate charge to defend Dreamers. But the raw politics of both Washington and his district are hardly demanding that he do so — at least not right now. McCarthy won his last two elections with 75 percent and 69 percent of the vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>\u003cstrong>Differing perspectives\u003c/strong>\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>On the ground in McCarthy’s district, however, where Latinos are 41 percent of the total population and 27 percent of those eligible to vote, feelings can also get more than a little raw. The 52-year-old congressman, a lifelong Bakersfield resident, represents most of Tulare County, where Porterville is located, and the majority of California’s sprawling Kern County. Kern is peppered with oil rigs that produce more oil than Oklahoma. The county is also home to military-industrial-complex interests. Kern’s formidable agribusiness production, consisting of grapes, fruit trees, scores of other crops and milk, made it the number one farm county in the nation in 2016 at $7.19 billion in value. Tulare’s farm production value was $6.37 billion. The state, as a whole, is by far the nation’s biggest dairy-producing state, while also producing almost half the nation’s fruits, nuts and vegetables.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-11642517\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"897\" height=\"1100\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM.png 897w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-160x196.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-800x981.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-240x294.png 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-375x460.png 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-520x638.png 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 897px) 100vw, 897px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those stats form the basis for part of the passion here. After all, advocates for Dreamers argue California supplies a massive quantity of the food Americans consume. And agribusiness has acknowledged for a long time that immigrants, many of them undocumented and the parents of Dreamers, are essential to creating this bounty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve complained to McCarthy’s office: What about the Dreamers?” said John Duran, 67, a Republican in Porterville who is of Mexican descent but not an immigrant. “He needs to be doing more. But because he’s Republican he’s got to follow their agenda.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are no exact numbers, but McCarthy’s 23rd Congressional District is home to an estimated 7,900 young people who fit the profile of those eligible to have signed up for DACA, according to analysis of Census Bureau data by the University of Southern California. Adjacent GOP districts have as many or even more of these young people, who were eligible to sign up for DACA once they reached 16, if they had lived here since at least June 15, 2007.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Duran, a former correctional officer who’s active in local politics, said he’s generally pro-Trump and is strongly opposed to government “giveaways.” But he winces at some of the rhetoric around immigrants that’s voiced by the president and his supporters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even here, where it’s plain to the eye who does a lot of hard labor, Duran said, “some people seem to have the idea that illegal immigrants don’t do anything but crime.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Duran says he was stunned not long ago when a non-Hispanic woman spoke out at a public forum about allowing Dreamers to serve in the military to earn legal status and citizenship. “She came up to me and said if they want to get citizenship, they should serve for 20 years,” he said. “That just doesn’t make sense to me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Only Congress can change immigration law to open up a path that doesn’t exist now, a reality that runs contrary to misconceptions that there’s a line anyone wishing to immigrate can get into and just patiently wait a turn. A bipartisan bill introduced this past July, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/senate-bill/1615\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dream Act of 2017\u003c/a>, would create a years-long path to permanent residency and citizenship for eligible young people who’ve been here at least four years prior to enactment of such legislation. But that bill did not advance. Versions of the Dream Act in Congress go back to 2001.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beyond the details, though, some DACA recipients here say they’d just like to hear McCarthy defend them more vigorously — and act with speed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Porterville Dreamer Marco Reyes, 20, who works as a cashier and studies at Porterville College, a community college, said: “If I talked to McCarthy I’d ask him what he’s doing behind the scenes that nobody else is doing. He must be doing something. Are you going to surprise us later, hopefully with something that’s not bad? Because with politicians you never know.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>American Dream at Stake\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>As Republicans bore down on passing tax reform, GOP Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky told Fox News shortly before the holiday break that “we have plenty of time” to act on DACA to meet Trump’s March deadline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Galvan said: “I can’t wait.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even with nerves on edge, he’s got to attend classes at the local College of the Sequoias — in preparation for transfer to a four-year university — and report for as long as he can to his job tutoring 7th and 8th graders. The kids remind him of himself, when he was growing up poor but struggling to hold onto dreams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“After I got DACA, I went crazy,” Galvan said, explaining the sense of liberation it gave him. “I joined every club I could. I’ve really tried to do my best.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s been a long road. Galvan arrived from Mexico at five, and now he’s 20. As he was growing up, employers continued to hire people with little fear of getting penalized for “knowingly,” as the law says, hiring undocumented workers. Farm groups have long admitted that authentic-looking fake documents immigrants buy are part and parcel of how California’s factories in the fields stay open. Galvan’s dad has worked for the same agricultural employer for 15 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At an early December pro-DACA rally in Porterville, population 60,000, agitated locals channeled their anger about the treatment of undocumented workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These people live in the shadows and break their backs so that the people of America can eat!” Rosa Salmeron, a California State University, Fresno, student of social work shouted through a bullhorn. “We’re not shadows. We are people!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salmeron, 37, patted Galvan’s shoulder as he took the bullhorn at a rally in Veteran’s Park to tell the crowd about his dilemma.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salmeron, whose parents fled El Salvador during its civil war, is a naturalized U.S. citizen and grateful, she said, for the 1986 amnesty that Congress and President Ronald Reagan crafted that allowed her and her parents a chance to legalize and then go on to become citizens. Her family members live and have businesses in McCarthy’s district, in Bakersfield.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These people are not representing us,” she told the crowd of several dozen. She urged people to register to vote and oust local Republicans from Congress if they don’t do more for Dreamers. “The American Dream is at stake!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Kevin McCarthy is my representative and it upsets me that he won’t meet to talk about this,” added Daniel Peñaloza, 24, who runs an office in Porterville set up by the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights based in Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peñaloza has organized pro-DACA rallies not only outside McCarthy’s offices, but also at the offices of neighboring congressmen \u003ca href=\"https://valadao.house.gov/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rep.

Devin Nunes\u003c/a>, R-Tulare, of the 22nd District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Valadao, the son of Portuguese immigrants, is a dairy farmer. He doesn’t have the clout that McCarthy wields, but he’s ventured where many other Republicans won’t go. He was one of three Republicans in the House who co-sponsored a failed 2013 comprehensive immigration reform package that would put undocumented workers on an earned path to legal status, a green card.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Valadao is also one of two GOP congressmen from California who signed up to co-sponsor the Dream Act of 2017. The other co-sponsor is \u003ca href=\"https://denham.house.gov/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rep. Jeff Denham\u003c/a>, R-Turlock, whose 10th Congressional District also includes farm country to the north of Fresno.

Ryan declined.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As we approach the March deadline,” Valadao said in a statement, “it is more critical than ever that Congress immediately act to repair our broken immigration system and provide DACA recipients with the certainty they deserve.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.pewhispanic.org/interactives/mapping-the-latino-electorate-by-congressional-district/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pew Research Center\u003c/a>, almost 76 percent of Valadao’s district is Latino, and more than 39 percent of the population eligible to vote is Latino — the highest percentage among California’s 14 Republican districts in the House. Democrats hold the rest of California’s 53 House seats. Despite his pro-immigrant record, Democrats consider Valadao vulnerable in the next election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in Washington, D.C., McCarthy’s communications director, Matt Sparks, addressed complaints that his boss seemed indifferent to Dreamers and would not meet with constituents unhappy that he isn’t publicly elevating their cause.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sparks said pro-DACA rallies have been disruptive at district offices, and interrupted other constituents’ business. He said field staff in California attend town meetings regularly, and listen respectfully to complaints aired in that setting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He provided a statement from McCarthy: “President Trump was right to correct President Obama’s executive overreach by calling on Congress to find a solution for the children of illegal immigrants who came to this country through no fault of their own.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCarthy had previously told CNBC that “I don’t think this country is going to move these individuals out.” In the same interview, he acknowledged, to a point, his district’s dependence on immigrant workers. “I come from an agricultural community and I know you need a guest-worker program,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sparks said DACA isn’t the only immigration-related issue that constituents bring up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some district residents want to know about possible reforms Congress might initiate to broaden an existing guest-worker program for agriculture. Some want to talk about “chain migration,” a pejorative word coined by immigration-restriction activists to describe how immigrants, once citizens, can petition to sponsor certain relatives, including siblings and parents, to immigrate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When there’s consensus around an immigration reform plan,” Sparks said, “then I think something will happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sparks also said that McCarthy’s office was open to learning more about Luis Galvan’s work permit snafu to see if staff could help.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Agribusiness view\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Grimmway Farms in Kern County is the world’s largest grower of carrots.

Judge William Alsup wrote that DACA recipients would suffer “irreparable harm” as they lose DACA protections. It’s unclear how federal officials will handle DACA renewal applications they rejected for failing to meet an Oct. 5 deadline. A Department of Justice statement said the department will defend the termination, calling DACA an “unlawful circumvention of Congress,” and a White House statement called on Congress to find a solution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Original Post:\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> Luis Galvan, 20, enjoyed a moment of triumph in late October when he boarded a plane for the first time and flew to Indianapolis to receive his Future Farmers of America degree, a prestigious certificate of achievement in the world of agriculture. Galvan was proud that all his grueling work with livestock and crops had paid off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But his euphoria was short-lived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Galvan got home he tore open an envelope waiting for him from the Department of Homeland Security. It was crushing news. He had submitted his application to renew a vital work permit for young immigrants known as “Dreamers” in plenty of time, along with a renewal fee. He received a notice back that there was a snafu over a $495 scholarship check he had submitted to pay the fee, and he promptly followed instructions to correct that. But now, this second, final notice told him his application was rejected for being late.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If Galvan can’t appeal the rejection, his work permit is set to expire Jan. 15. That would jeopardize his job tutoring junior high kids. It would affect his studies at college. It could even lead to him being deported.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What a bucket of cold water,” Galvan said, during a late-night interview in Porterville, the small California farm city where he grew up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Surrounded by a sea of orchards—including oranges now flooding U.S. markets—Porterville sits in California’s vast Central Valley. Considered one of the world’s most productive agribusiness regions, the valley depends on immigrant labor. And among those who represent the region in Congress are multiple Republican lawmakers, not least of them Rep. Kevin McCarthy, the powerful GOP majority leader whose district includes Porterville.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The work permit Galvan holds stems from his status as a recipient of \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/16/us/us-to-stop-deporting-some-illegal-immigrants.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DACA\u003c/a>, the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program whose fate rests, in no small part, in McCarthy’s hands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former President Barack Obama created DACA in 2012 to allow undocumented young people brought to the United States as children to stay legally, conditionally, until, Obama said he hoped, Congress came up with a solution to help them. Nicknamed Dreamers, this population has no sure path to legal residency, no matter how long they’ve been here or how much they accomplish. DACA has temporarily protected them from deportation and allowed them to obtain work permits. On Sept. 5 though, President Donald Trump announced that he was pulling the plug on DACA, arguing in a statement that Obama lacked authority to create the program and that policy should be “fair to American families, students, taxpayers and jobseekers.” Spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders added that unemployed Americans could possibly assume DACA recipients’ jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11642514\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 380px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11642514\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2.jpeg\" alt=\"Leydy Rangel, 22, and Eloisa Torres, 18, undocumented DACA recipients from Bakersfield, work up enthusiasm before trying to speak to House members in Washington, D.C. about a proposal to let them earn permanent legal status. \" width=\"380\" height=\"253\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2.jpeg 380w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2-160x107.jpeg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2-240x160.jpeg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2-375x250.jpeg 375w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 380px) 100vw, 380px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Leydy Rangel, 22, and Eloisa Torres, 18, undocumented DACA recipients from Bakersfield, work up enthusiasm before trying to speak to House members in Washington, D.C. about a proposal to let them earn permanent legal status. \u003ccite>(Susan Ferriss/Center for Public Integrity)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Nearly 800,000 DACA recipients were suddenly plunged into uncertainty. Dreamers whose work permits were soon to expire were given a chance to apply, one last time, for two-year renewals by Oct. 5. Many missed the tight deadline or had applications they say were denied unfairly. If nothing changes, after March, all DACA recipients will begin to lose permits in waves as each card expires.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The situation remains up in the air. Despite his harsh rhetoric claiming Dreamers occupy Americans’ jobs, Trump too challenged Congress to come up with a legislative fix with “heart” to help Dreamers before the March deadline. A flurry of negotiations to pass such a bill collapsed just prior to the holiday break. GOP leaders now say Congress will take up DACA again this month, as part of broader debate over Trump’s demands for more border wall investments and cuts in family-based immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the politics are complicated, and they’re especially complicated here in California, home to at least a quarter of Dreamers. Most polling, from ABC to Fox News, shows that 60 to upwards of 80 percent of Americans think Dreamers should get a chance to stay and become legalized. In and around Porterville, Dreamers and their backers angrily question why McCarthy and fellow congressmen from California’s Central Valley aren’t vigorously pushing for a legislative fix — pronto — because so many Dreamers’ lives hang in the balance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCarthy declined an interview but in careful language has backed crafting a DACA fix as long as it’s coupled with more investments in border security measures. He said in a statement that he supported Trump’s position and that Congress is working on a “lawful solution to this problem.” It’s clear to everyone that McCarthy is not publicly leading a passionate charge to defend Dreamers. But the raw politics of both Washington and his district are hardly demanding that he do so — at least not right now. McCarthy won his last two elections with 75 percent and 69 percent of the vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>\u003cstrong>Differing perspectives\u003c/strong>\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>On the ground in McCarthy’s district, however, where Latinos are 41 percent of the total population and 27 percent of those eligible to vote, feelings can also get more than a little raw. The 52-year-old congressman, a lifelong Bakersfield resident, represents most of Tulare County, where Porterville is located, and the majority of California’s sprawling Kern County. Kern is peppered with oil rigs that produce more oil than Oklahoma. The county is also home to military-industrial-complex interests. Kern’s formidable agribusiness production, consisting of grapes, fruit trees, scores of other crops and milk, made it the number one farm county in the nation in 2016 at $7.19 billion in value. Tulare’s farm production value was $6.37 billion. The state, as a whole, is by far the nation’s biggest dairy-producing state, while also producing almost half the nation’s fruits, nuts and vegetables.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-11642517\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"897\" height=\"1100\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM.png 897w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-160x196.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-800x981.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-240x294.png 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-375x460.png 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-520x638.png 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 897px) 100vw, 897px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those stats form the basis for part of the passion here. After all, advocates for Dreamers argue California supplies a massive quantity of the food Americans consume. And agribusiness has acknowledged for a long time that immigrants, many of them undocumented and the parents of Dreamers, are essential to creating this bounty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve complained to McCarthy’s office: What about the Dreamers?” said John Duran, 67, a Republican in Porterville who is of Mexican descent but not an immigrant. “He needs to be doing more. But because he’s Republican he’s got to follow their agenda.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are no exact numbers, but McCarthy’s 23rd Congressional District is home to an estimated 7,900 young people who fit the profile of those eligible to have signed up for DACA, according to analysis of Census Bureau data by the University of Southern California. Adjacent GOP districts have as many or even more of these young people, who were eligible to sign up for DACA once they reached 16, if they had lived here since at least June 15, 2007.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Duran, a former correctional officer who’s active in local politics, said he’s generally pro-Trump and is strongly opposed to government “giveaways.” But he winces at some of the rhetoric around immigrants that’s voiced by the president and his supporters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even here, where it’s plain to the eye who does a lot of hard labor, Duran said, “some people seem to have the idea that illegal immigrants don’t do anything but crime.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Duran says he was stunned not long ago when a non-Hispanic woman spoke out at a public forum about allowing Dreamers to serve in the military to earn legal status and citizenship. “She came up to me and said if they want to get citizenship, they should serve for 20 years,” he said. “That just doesn’t make sense to me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Only Congress can change immigration law to open up a path that doesn’t exist now, a reality that runs contrary to misconceptions that there’s a line anyone wishing to immigrate can get into and just patiently wait a turn. A bipartisan bill introduced this past July, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/senate-bill/1615\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dream Act of 2017\u003c/a>, would create a years-long path to permanent residency and citizenship for eligible young people who’ve been here at least four years prior to enactment of such legislation. But that bill did not advance. Versions of the Dream Act in Congress go back to 2001.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beyond the details, though, some DACA recipients here say they’d just like to hear McCarthy defend them more vigorously — and act with speed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Porterville Dreamer Marco Reyes, 20, who works as a cashier and studies at Porterville College, a community college, said: “If I talked to McCarthy I’d ask him what he’s doing behind the scenes that nobody else is doing. He must be doing something. Are you going to surprise us later, hopefully with something that’s not bad? Because with politicians you never know.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>American Dream at Stake\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>As Republicans bore down on passing tax reform, GOP Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky told Fox News shortly before the holiday break that “we have plenty of time” to act on DACA to meet Trump’s March deadline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Galvan said: “I can’t wait.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even with nerves on edge, he’s got to attend classes at the local College of the Sequoias — in preparation for transfer to a four-year university — and report for as long as he can to his job tutoring 7th and 8th graders. The kids remind him of himself, when he was growing up poor but struggling to hold onto dreams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“After I got DACA, I went crazy,” Galvan said, explaining the sense of liberation it gave him. “I joined every club I could. I’ve really tried to do my best.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s been a long road. Galvan arrived from Mexico at five, and now he’s 20. As he was growing up, employers continued to hire people with little fear of getting penalized for “knowingly,” as the law says, hiring undocumented workers. Farm groups have long admitted that authentic-looking fake documents immigrants buy are part and parcel of how California’s factories in the fields stay open. Galvan’s dad has worked for the same agricultural employer for 15 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At an early December pro-DACA rally in Porterville, population 60,000, agitated locals channeled their anger about the treatment of undocumented workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These people live in the shadows and break their backs so that the people of America can eat!” Rosa Salmeron, a California State University, Fresno, student of social work shouted through a bullhorn. “We’re not shadows. We are people!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salmeron, 37, patted Galvan’s shoulder as he took the bullhorn at a rally in Veteran’s Park to tell the crowd about his dilemma.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salmeron, whose parents fled El Salvador during its civil war, is a naturalized U.S. citizen and grateful, she said, for the 1986 amnesty that Congress and President Ronald Reagan crafted that allowed her and her parents a chance to legalize and then go on to become citizens. Her family members live and have businesses in McCarthy’s district, in Bakersfield.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These people are not representing us,” she told the crowd of several dozen. She urged people to register to vote and oust local Republicans from Congress if they don’t do more for Dreamers. “The American Dream is at stake!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Kevin McCarthy is my representative and it upsets me that he won’t meet to talk about this,” added Daniel Peñaloza, 24, who runs an office in Porterville set up by the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights based in Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peñaloza has organized pro-DACA rallies not only outside McCarthy’s offices, but also at the offices of neighboring congressmen \u003ca href=\"https://valadao.house.gov/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rep. David Valadao\u003c/a>, R-Hanford, of the 21st District, and \u003ca href=\"https://nunes.house.gov/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rep. Devin Nunes\u003c/a>, R-Tulare, of the 22nd District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Valadao, the son of Portuguese immigrants, is a dairy farmer. He doesn’t have the clout that McCarthy wields, but he’s ventured where many other Republicans won’t go. He was one of three Republicans in the House who co-sponsored a failed 2013 comprehensive immigration reform package that would put undocumented workers on an earned path to legal status, a green card.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Valadao is also one of two GOP congressmen from California who signed up to co-sponsor the Dream Act of 2017. The other co-sponsor is \u003ca href=\"https://denham.house.gov/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rep. Jeff Denham\u003c/a>, R-Turlock, whose 10th Congressional District also includes farm country to the north of Fresno. Both also signed a Dec. 5 letter with \u003ca href=\"https://newhouse.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/34-house-republicans-urge-daca-fix-end-year\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">32 other GOP legislators\u003c/a> urging Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, R-Wisc., to put the Dream Act of 2017 on the floor for a vote. Ryan declined.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As we approach the March deadline,” Valadao said in a statement, “it is more critical than ever that Congress immediately act to repair our broken immigration system and provide DACA recipients with the certainty they deserve.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.pewhispanic.org/interactives/mapping-the-latino-electorate-by-congressional-district/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pew Research Center\u003c/a>, almost 76 percent of Valadao’s district is Latino, and more than 39 percent of the population eligible to vote is Latino — the highest percentage among California’s 14 Republican districts in the House. Democrats hold the rest of California’s 53 House seats. Despite his pro-immigrant record, Democrats consider Valadao vulnerable in the next election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in Washington, D.C., McCarthy’s communications director, Matt Sparks, addressed complaints that his boss seemed indifferent to Dreamers and would not meet with constituents unhappy that he isn’t publicly elevating their cause.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sparks said pro-DACA rallies have been disruptive at district offices, and interrupted other constituents’ business. He said field staff in California attend town meetings regularly, and listen respectfully to complaints aired in that setting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He provided a statement from McCarthy: “President Trump was right to correct President Obama’s executive overreach by calling on Congress to find a solution for the children of illegal immigrants who came to this country through no fault of their own.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCarthy had previously told CNBC that “I don’t think this country is going to move these individuals out.” In the same interview, he acknowledged, to a point, his district’s dependence on immigrant workers. “I come from an agricultural community and I know you need a guest-worker program,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sparks said DACA isn’t the only immigration-related issue that constituents bring up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some district residents want to know about possible reforms Congress might initiate to broaden an existing guest-worker program for agriculture.

He won a full scholarship to the University of California at Berkeley. “People didn’t care about my citizenship status when I was running track,” said Gonzalez, whose choice to attend Berkeley was featured in local news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s back in Bakersfield after graduation and is working at Youth 2 Leaders Education Foundation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He counsels parents and kids on available options for college scholarships. California legislators, over the years, have gradually passed legislation to first allow undocumented students to attend state colleges and pay in-state tuition rather than out-of-state fees. Later legislation was passed to allow students to receive state aid, not federal, to help pay for tuition. Private scholarships are out there as well. “There are people who think we don’t belong here while eating what my people are picking,” he said. He tells families to keep kids in school, no matter what happens to DACA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ironically, Gonzalez also participates in citizenship workshops to help immigrants with legal permanent residency prepare for testing. “You don’t know how much I wish I were in your position,” he jokes with aspiring citizens he helps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Luis Galvan, there’s no time to waste. He’s in a race to avoid having his DACA work permit expire. He’s talked to a lawyer, and to \u003ca href=\"https://missionassetfund.org/daca-renewal-scholarships/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mission Asset Fund\u003c/a>, a nonprofit group in San Francisco that provided him the scholarship to pay his renewal fee. Tara Robinson, the fund’s chief development officer, said the fund issued more than 5,000 checks to DACA recipients and the majority were cashed by Homeland Security. A small number weren’t accepted, which Robinson said could have been due to a Homeland Security error. When Galvan received word from the department to resubmit his application and a new payment, he bought a money order and Mission Asset Fund later reimbursed him. Then the rejection notice arrived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"info": "The MindShift podcast explores the innovations in education that are shaping how kids learn. Hosts Ki Sung and Katrina Schwartz introduce listeners to educators, researchers, parents and students who are developing effective ways to improve how kids learn. We cover topics like how fed-up administrators are developing surprising tactics to deal with classroom disruptions; how listening to podcasts are helping kids develop reading skills; the consequences of overparenting; and why interdisciplinary learning can engage students on all ends of the traditional achievement spectrum. This podcast is part of the MindShift education site, a division of KQED News. KQED is an NPR/PBS member station based in San Francisco.
