The President also mentioned DACA as a top priority for 2018.
“We also obviously went into budget so we went into DACA and how we’re going to do and we hope that we’re going to be able to work out an arrangement with the democrats,” said President Trump. “I think it’s something that they’d like to see happen. it’s something I would like to see happen”.
