The Senate Parliamentarian, Elizabeth MacDonough, has ruled against the Democrat’s first proposal regarding a path to citizenship for millions of undocumented immigrants.

As political reporters sound the alarms, it is essential to remember that the parliamentarian has ruled on one approach, which leaves the door open for other approaches.

Sabrina Rodriguez from Politico reports that Senators Durbin and Senator Padilla are already looking at next steps in this mIn addition, majorityted process. Majority Leader Schumer has also issued a statement.

What Happens Next?

Tomorrow, the sun will rise, and the news media will pour over their analysis about why the parliamentarian ruled the way she did and what will be the implications of her decision. Personally, I am interested in what Punchbowl News will have to say about this latest development.

However, as a veteran of the immigrant rights movement, I am here to tell you that media coverage aside — the fight will continue.

You have already seen that Senate Democrats are already preparing to carry out a PLAN B in their attempt to deliver a path to citizenship. Similarly, immigrant rights coalitions and organizations are pledging to keep up the pressure across the country and urge Democrats to “pursue every possible option to deliver a path to citizenship this year.”

But if you don’t want to wait around to hear what comes next, then I invite you to join me in calling your U.S. Senators and urging them to deliver a path to citizenship THIS YEAR for immigrants across the country.
