Rep. Carlos Curbelo, R-Fla., told reporters on Monday that a deal has been struck in the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus for a bill that would protect “Dreamers” — children brought to the U.S. by undocumented parents — and increase border security. However, in order for it to be passed in 2017, it would have to be introduced this week.

And so the clock continues to tick. It’s high time that Congress stops the endless delays and passes a permanent legislative fix for America’s Dreamers.
