All Senate Democrats united with two independent senators in 2013 to push through a comprehensive immigration reform plan to build a border fence and end “chain migration” and the visa lottery, positions they now oppose because they are in President Trump’s immigration package.
Led by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, 52 Democrats and two independents OK’d the legislation.
It called for “no fewer than 700 miles” of border fencing.
It also included a section detailing the end of the diversity visa, a lottery for green cards meant to diversify the U.S. immigrant population.
