Omar calls on Schumer, White House to ‘ignore’ Senate parliamentarian on path to citizenship | Fox News

“This ruling by the parliamentarian, is only a recommendation. @SenSchumer and the @WhiteHouse can and should ignore it,” Omar said. “We can t miss this once in a lifetime opportunity to do the right thing.”

MacDonough said the provision was “a policy change that substantially outweighs the budgetary impact of that change,” as it would change the immigration status of 8 million people. She also said it would raise the deficit by an estimated $140 billion over 10 years.
