On Sunday October 8, the White House released a list of immigration priorities that it says should be included in any legislation to codify the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program into law. The priority list makes no immediate changes to the immigration system and is instead intended to shape the upcoming legislative debate surrounding relief for DACA beneficiaries.
