The Senate's No. 2 Republican John Cornynm, R-Texas, took to Twitter on Tuesday to warn Democrats the "clock is ticking" on immigration.
The tweets come the same day Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said the debate on immigration will end this week, fulfilling the pledge he made to Democrats to end the first shutdown.
"I've lived up to my commitment," McConnell said Tuesday. "I hope everyone will cooperate so this opportunity does not go to waste."
Congress is staring down a March 5 deadline, set by President Donald Trump, to find a legislative solution for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
