House Speaker Paul Ryan on Friday gave a major boost to legislative efforts to preserve protections for young undocumented immigrants -- and urged President Donald Trump to not tear up the program. Trump told reporters Friday he was still mulling the decision. The White House press secretary said a decision would be announced Tuesday.
Responding to a question about Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, on his hometown radio station WCLO in Janesville, Wisconsin, Ryan said Congress was working on a legislative fix to preserve the program.
"I actually don't think he should do that," Ryan said of Trump's consideration of terminating the program. "I believe that this is something that Congress has to fix."
Ryan's statement offers the most public support by anyone in the Republican congressional leadership for some sort of legislation to protect the "Dreamers" under DACA.

Paul Ryno
Sure thing, Paul. After all, you’ve been such a loyal, vocal, steadfast supporter of the president.
What a cheek. He’s got no favors to call in. But he’s been in DC riding around in his motorcade for so long he thinks every street is one way.
Maybe PRyno-Hitler should pass some legislation.
Romney and Ryan did a survey which found that this
is critical for Pres. Trump’s continuing massive support.
The leech and backstabber continues unabated.
Trump breaks a Champaign promise.....
Paul “Hold Off” Ryan. That’s our guy.
Stalling to send Trump flyin’.
In 2015 the House file suit to block DACA because it was clearly unconstitutional under Article I naturalization. Paul Ryan was the Speaker.
In 2017 the Speaker wants more time to find a “legislative solution” to DACA which means a path to citizenship for illegal aliens.
Paul Ryan is a two-faced, cheap labor express, crony globalist, big government, lobbyist owned fraud.
Good Lord! One of the few major bargaining chips Trump may have over the “resistance!” democrats and Ryan sticks his big nose right into the middle of it — what an idiot!
What promise did Trump break?
Ryan has prevailed so far. Don’t be surprised if the announcement on Tuesday is so watered down as to not be recognizable.
Major boost implies, Ryano’s words carry some weight with the public &/or with POTUS. I say that its a flea speck and Ryan has condemned himself out of his own mouth. The major effect will be his loss of the position as Speaker of the House.
Trump, Hell? Read it and weep. It’s Ryan.
What the heck do you think Trump can do??? If Ryan wants him stalled for impeachment purposes, Trump is not empowered to take over the legislative branch calendar of events.
DACA needs to be scrapped. Lyin’ Ryan and the RINO’s all said it was unconstitutional from its conception. But if it is deemed to help TRUMP, it’s going in the same file 13 the IRS used against all private conservative action.
Yes, the Swamp is killing Trump slowly. A thinly veiled silent coup in progress.
Ryan is in such a hurry to bootlick the Chamber of Commerce and cheap labor types at the expense of American workers yet he doesn’t do a thing on Obamacare repeal, tax reform or infrastructure rebuilding. He has THEIR priorities straight, not ours.
OPEN BORDERS AND TOTAL AMNESTY IS BACK ON THE MENU!!!!!!
Can we please just vote Ryan out next time around?
If you were truly concerned with the welfare of DREAMERs you would've submitted a bill long ago.
...In 2015 the House file suit to block DACA...
Obama created DACA. Trump can end it.
