Remember, they're not "illegal immigrants", they're "childhood arrivals".
The Republicans named in the story here, where it is claimed there are up to 60 supporters in the US House Republican Caucus, are:
Senator Lindsey Grahamnesty Graham of South Carolina
Rep. Mike Coffman of Colorado
Rep. Ileana Ros Lehtinen of Florida
Rep. Carlos Curbelo of Florida.
The House would need 290 votes to override a Trump veto of a bill exempting "Dreamers" from deportation for three years. In the Senate 67 votes would be required. A coalition of 194 House Democrats and 60 Republicans yields just 254 votes, not enough. In the Senate 19 Republicans would have to join 48 Democrats to override a Trump veto.
So Coffman wants to ram the bill through now, before Obama no longer has his pen and telephone.
