The Senate next month will take up legislation that would fund the southern border wall, limit chain migration, and provide for other border security provisions, but would also meet the demand of many Democrats by creating a program for the so-called Dreamers.

Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said the measure might be considered as a standalone bill, but could also be wrapped up into a year-long spending deal anticipated next month. He said the deal won’t encompass comprehensive immigration reform addressing the nation’s 11 million illegal immigrants, because that would be difficult to achieve in January.
