Sen. Dick Durbin
Dec. 11, 2018

Tweet - "A federal appeals court today called Pres. Trump ending DACA & deporting these young people "cruel and wasteful." Pres. Trump cannot explain this away as national security. It's a hateful policy aimed at innocent young people. Our President should remember his own family's story."
