Mitt Romney: “I believe the status of young people who come here through no fault of their own is an important matter to be considered…”

On the recordJune 14, 2012
I believe the status of young people who come here through no fault of their own is an important matter to be considered and should be solved on a long-term basis, so they know what their future would be in this country. I think the action that the president took today makes it more difficult to reach that long-term solution, because an executive order is, of course, just a short-term matter. It can be reversed by subsequent presidents.
