 Trump Confirms Support for Law to Protect ‘Dreamers’

  President Trump said on Thursday morning that "he supports legislation that would protect young undocumented immigrants from deportation and would deliver a “massive” increase in border security" That appeared to confirm the broad parameters of an agreement that Democratic leaders announced had been reached Wednesday.Even if Mr. Trump and Democratic leaders agree to support legislation to protect the young undocumented immigrants, any proposal would need the support of Republicans, who control the House and Senate.On Thursday morning, the president said that there would need to be a larger deal on securing the United States’ border in order to complete any agreement on protections for the immigrants. Mr. Trump has told Congress it has six months to find a legislative fix to shield the young immigrants that President Barack Obama gave protections to through an executive order. trump wrote on twitter that no deal were made.
