Excellent reporting in @thehill by @Rafael_Bernal_ with the latest on immigrant relief talks in Congress: thehill.com/latino/580021-…

Short 🧵
Many great takeaways from Bernal's reporting, but this one is key for anyone counting on permanent relief in BBB:

>> @HispanicCaucus' "four Senate members asked the three amigos to push forward on including the change of registry date in the final House reconciliation bill."
>> @HispanicCaucus senators "feel that once it's in the Senate they can engage in the negotiations necessary to be successful. When you engage in a negotiation, you don't begin with the bottom line, you begin with as robust a position as possible," said @RepChuyGarcia.
After a long meeting @RepChuyGarcia @RepLouCorrea @RepEspaillat (aka los #3amigos) had yesterday with @SpeakerPelosi one thing is clear:

- The road ahead on immigrant relief is neither easy nor obvious, but @HispanicCaucus finally seems to be aligning on registry.
Beyond that, be sure to follow @Rafael_Bernal_ if you don't already!!!

Illuminating train ride through the Senate tunnels with @SenatorMenendez. Here's what he had to say on immigration policy to @LauraLitvan and me —

🧵
>> @SenatorMenendez on parliamentarian: "I disagree with her views. I think that what we've already presented her is foursquare within the budgetary process and has a budgetary effect and in the past, Republicans have used reconciliation for elements of immigration changes."
>> @SenatorMenendez on parliamentarian (cont.): "I am of the belief that in this country, there isn't a process in which there isn't an appeal. [...] I have never seen anything in which there is one person who has the final word and there's no appeal."

Immigration update from @SenatorDurbin: "I talked to Nancy [Pelosi] last night and went over possibilities and she's got her hands full. I think she can do it. She's masterful, but at this point, there's some divisions within our caucus that she's trying to work out." 🧵
>> "The first two things we presented to the Senate parliamentarian have passed the house. So there are some who said, We want to send over what we've already approved." - @SenatorDurbin
>> "Of course, we face the same [parliamentarian] obstacle over here if they do that. That's what they want to do. And of course, we face the same obstacle over here if they do that. So we're trying to find some way to balance that." -@SenatorDurbin
