Monday's response was the first time Ivanka Trump has addressed the topic of immigration since her father took office, usually opting to stay away from controversial political topics, CNN reported. President Trump has announced that he would end the DACA, which protects young undocumented immigrants brought to the US as children , at the beginning of last month, but gave Congress a six-month window in which to act to make the program permanent. Ivanka Trump echoed her father's public statements on the future of the DACA programme, and called on Congress to act. On Sunday night, the White House released an aggressive list of priorities for a deal to protect young undocumented immigrants, including tough border security and immigration enforcement measures, reports CNN. We're not retaining the best talent for the jobs that we need and that has to fundamentally be reconsidered," Ivanka Trump said.
