WASHINGTON, D.C. — White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders told reporters Friday that the Trump Administration will be laying out details of a possible deal with Democrat and Republican congressional leaders to pass legislation on DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) and border security measures. One reporter referenced President Donald Trump’s tweet that no chain migration could be a part of an immigration bill, then asked Sanders, “What did he mean by that?”
“The President is focused on making sure that in the efforts of these ongoing conversations between both Democrats and Republicans, that we deliver on responsible immigration reform. He wants to help American workers and families,” replied Sanders.
Chain migration refers to those who hold legal status in the U.S. and use that status to bring members of their family to the United States. The question has been raised in relation to the possibility that DACA recipients, if given legal status in the, could in turn use that to get status for members of their extended families.
“No deal has been final reached on this process,” Sanders continued. “He supports making an agreement on DACA, but that would have to include massive border security and interior enforcements.”
Media reports have been rife with comments from Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi after they took part in a dinner meeting with President Trump on Wednesday evening. The two followed up with a joint statement indicating that they made a deal with the President to quickly legalize DACA and would not include the building of the southern border wall Trump promised during his 2016 campaign. Trump refuted the claims of Schumer and Pelosi at he traveled to Florida on Thursday morning, stating that no deal had been reached.
“He’s still 100% committed to the wall..."

I think the RAISE Act addresses the DACA situation in a way that would come the closest to a legal and doable resolution of the issues involved. Senator Tom Cotton and Senator Perdue are both patriotic, sensible, and intelligent. Any bill has to go thru congress and will have to satisfy enough of the members to pass so there will undoubtedly be drawbacks. Pres Trump has gotten his point across that he will look for votes elsewhere if the Republican leadership continues to thwart his agenda at every turn. He will do the best he can to honor his pledge to serve America and I respect his judgment however it works out. If congress was helping him most of his pledges about the border, taxes, etal would be moving along and I am grateful that he has been able to continue on at the same pace he started. President Trump is standing strong and the least his supporters can do is hang in there with him.
I don't doubt that, but when they apply for citizenship AFTER the wall is built & AFTER all the other items are in place, they would be once again be vetted. How long is the current legal process?
Basically, I wouldn't let them apply for citizenship until we fix the immigration system & build the wall, which will take about as long as the current legal immigration process. Any violation of our laws during that time results in immediate deportation.
Trump is treating his campaign promises like old girlfriends he is sick of and doesn’t want to see.
He will think about them if he has to, if he is forced to look at them.
Hasn’t even gotten rid of Obama are which he said he would do on Day One and he is already caving.
Hillary isn’t in jail, she is on book tours making more money.
Meanwhile Mueller is out there ready to pounce.
Trump’s true supporters are being targeted in any way possible.
Where is any investigation of Charlottesville? This should have become one of the most important priorities.
From Flynn and son to B a n n o n, including Lewandowski we have seen
Trump take an emperor watching gladiators mentality where it is either thumb up or thumb down based on the howling of the crowd, which unfortunately here is our traitorous press. Worse still is the people of less notoriety, reported true supporters who he has allowed henchmen who bad mouth him at every chance to discard.
So if he gets rid of those who support him like this, maybe it shouldn’t come as a total surprise.
MAGA changed to MIGA.
Make Ivanka Great Again.
Screw everybody else.
This was fully evidenced when he went around talking about internships putting Ivanka in charge. So Ivanka gets a job, but everyone else out there Hey maybe they will give you an internship.
MIGA!
The only reform we need is a restoration of the rule of law.
Rescinding DACA was the correct thing to do even if it was 8 months tardy.
Enforcement needs to be ramped up and NO NEW laws to benefit those breaking current laws.
The border need to be secured with at least a fence and removals expedited.
No amnesty of any kind.
Yes sirree.
“The NEXT Dem president will make them citizens.”
AND the next dem will let them bring family over.”

We won’t have to wait for a RAT president....
A liberal “judge” will do the same thing much sooner.
“I address policy here, and I do not support one single illegal alien being allowed to remain in our nation.
Cut off all government support. Sanction employers. Give home and appartment dwellers 180 days to liquidate.
If they don’t in 180 days, or at least be very deep in the process, the could lose their assets.
We are serious. Get out!”
I agree, and any Clinton/Obama Judge who trys to stop it needs to have their citizenship revoked and given 24 hours to seek asylum in one of their much love utopias like Cuba.

Trump’s maneuvering on this is both practical and brilliant. The traitors, Ryan & McConnell, have been exposed for the useless scumbags they are — two lying mofus that should pack their “act” and go home.
I don’t think Trump changed. I think Pelosi misrepresented.
Ivanka and Jared are Learjet leftists and running and ruining the WH .
They pushed out Bannon and Gorka dragged in Kelly who loves these Invaders .
There are no conservatives anymore !
Pres Ivanka drove them off .
The person who kept the Syrian Muslim Invasion alive is left wing traitor behind this Amnesty .
It's Amnesty.
Trump is a liar !
Radio host Savage has called out Trump as traitor too and fooling the base to get elected . He stated Ivanka is running the WH as well .
We were used by these Manhattan Learjet Leftists .
Trump will be a one term President if not impeached before that .
I don't care anymore since he threw us under the bus after pushing out the conservative staff.
Exactly.. Trump playing Pelosi may I is amnesty all the way. This kind of deal is how we got ruined by anchor babies. Repeal every word.
“Trump apparently got the message.”
BS.
The concern trolls & the #neverTrumps have been clinging to the lying MSM’s false claims regarding DACA & as usual made fools of themselves in the process.
Who’s paying you to repeat the same script day after day?
They can’t because Pelosi first presidential term started with da a. Make no mistake the lefties are bragging.. Mexico beat Reagan and they will beat trump too.. that is their headline, not mine. Trumps Pelosi may I game is put America last and spend baby spend.
The debt ceiling deal gave Pelosi a blank check for every dem entitlement and took away the only bargaining chip that has sand bagged us from a cat 5 socialism storm.
Upsetting your fantasy world ?
Keep lying to yourself .
Who’s paying you to post the talking points script?
How did DACA move to the front of the line ahead of the wall, tax cuts, repealing crapcare? This will be finished pronto! This is a real sh## sandwich my fellow Americans. We have been had again?
