Immigration Reform: Obama Yet to Decide on Next Steps
Published at
Alex Wong/Getty Images(WASHINGTON) — President Obama has not made a final decision about what next steps he will take to reform the nation’s immigration system, White House press secretary Josh Earnest told reporters traveling with the president Thursday.
Again, Earnest reiterated that the president is still planning to “make some decisions and announce them before the end of the year…that should give you an indication that he is getting close to making a decision.”
As for what Congress may or may not do, Earnest said Obama’s decision is not related to whether or not lawmakers act before the end of the year.
If the House does move forward and passes the Senate bill, the president would sign that into law. If he has already moved forward with executive action by then, he would scrub those unilateral actions.
