Senate indie: "Obvious" deal could be made on immigration

“To me, there is an obvious deal on immigration,” King said on CBS’s “Face The Nation” with Margaret Brennan. “The deal is increased border security, a path to citizenship for Dreamers… and we’ve got to work on legal immigration for workforce.”

King floated the idea of a compromise between the parties as President Biden is slated to visit the southern border for the first time since he entered the White House. King said that while he thought Biden should have made the trip sooner, he was “delighted” he decided to visit the border.

“Let’s work on this because we can’t have the chaos and the humanitarian crisis that we have,” King said. “We ought to be able to move in a bipartisan way.”
