Washington - Business Roundtable CEO Joshua Bolten today issued the following statement regarding the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas’s decision on the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program:
“Dreamers grew up in America, were educated here and have built their entire lives in this country. The threat of removal from the only place they know as home has hung over Dreamers for far too long. Business Roundtable urges Congress to pass bipartisan legislation that creates a permanent solution for Dreamers, fixes our legal immigration system and establishes control over our borders.”
