News Conference: Immigrants and Overstayed Visas

news conference: We are not in a position where we can say all or none, according to Metro News. We have to save the Dreamers now, Pelosi said at a news conference at the Capitol. Instead, lawmakers must focus on protecting young immigrants brought to the United States illegally as children, Pelosi said. Dreamers is a term used for young immigrants who were brought to the country illegally as children or by parents who overstayed visas. The protesters called for reform that gives legal status to all immigrants in the country, not just young people. On Monday, dozens of protesters disrupted an event in Pelosi's hometown of San Francisco, showing their displeasure over her recent meetings with President Donald Trump over ways to continue the program that protects young immigrants from deportation.
