- Called the plight of children known as DREAMers who were brought into the country illegally by their relatives 'a very tough situation'
- Indicated that he's thinking about letting them stay and said his administration will have a plan in the next couple months
- Suggested he'd increase the number of visas available to high-skilled workers
President-elect Donald Trump says his administration is working on a plan that will make illegal immigrant children 'very happy,' and it will done in the next couple months
The president-elect said in the course of his campaign for the White House that illegal immigrants of all ages would be sent out of the country. Only the 'good' ones would be allowed to return, Trump stated.
He vowed to overturn President Obama's executive orders directing immigration officials to focus their efforts on deporting criminals, shielding children through his Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.
After some pleading from exiting President Barack Obama and immigration reform advocates, including some Republicans in Congress, Trump seemed to soften his stance.
He told Time Magazine in early December that he wanted to 'work something out' for illegal immigrant children, known as DREAMers.
'I want Dreamers for our children also. We’re going to work something out. On a humanitarian basis it’s a very tough situation,' he said. 'We’re going to work something out that’s going to make people happy and proud. But that’s a very tough situation.'
