STATEMENT: Congressman Fleischmann on DACA decision

September 5, 2017

The following statement can be attributed to Congressman Chuck Fleischmann (R-TN):

"While I am sympathetic to the intent of the DACA program and the situation of those affected by it, the fact remains that the program was created through an unconstitutional reach of executive power under the Obama Administration. The 6-month delay will provide Congress with the proper time necessary to craft legislation to address the immigration issues facing our nation."
