Mr. REED. Mr. President, I rise today to join my colleagues in reminding all of our Members, but particularly our friends on the other side of the aisle and the Administration, that there is a very real human cost for each day we delay taking corrective action on President Trump's unnecessary decision to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals Program, or DACA. There was no need for the Trump administration to create this crisis. There was no reason to throw nearly 800,000 Dreamers and their families into such uncertainty. Yet the President--despite the fact that most Americans from both political parties support a solution for the Dreamers--decided that he needed to overturn this initiative for little more reason than the fact that it was put in place by President Obama.
