Senators Push Forward DACA Deal to Break Deadlock

The Trump administration blasted a bipartisan immigration proposal as an “egregious violation” of the president’s principles for a deal, hours before the Senate will weigh multiple plans aimed at addressing the fate of 1.8 million immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally as children.
