On Ending the Shutdown:
“The same energy and spirit the bipartisan group put into forging a compromise this weekend ought to be committed to finding a bill on DACA that will pass [Congress]. - Sen. Schumer (D-NY)
“This regrettable shutdown reminded all of us that, in the United States Senate, brinksmanship and hostage-taking simply do not work.” - Sen. McConnell (R-KY)
On the Future of DACA Policy:
“I do not believe we should be granting a path to citizenship to anybody here illegally. Doing so is inconsistent with the promises we made to the men and women who elected us.” - Sen. Cruz (R-TX)
"You're going to see strong support on the Democratic side that you have to have some kind of path to citizenship.” - Sen. Klobuchar (D-MN)
