Rep.-elect Ben McAdams says he wants to get to work on DACA, could vote for a Republican speaker over Nancy Pelosi

McAdams, Salt Lake County’s mayor, told “Trib Talk” that he’s eager to get to work, particularly on the subject of immigration. He spoke about a volunteer for his campaign who is one of the so-called “Dreamers” — or individuals brought into the country illegally as children. The volunteer, along with thousands of others, has undergone stress and uncertainty caused by President Donald Trump’s revocation of the Deferred Action for Child Arrivals program, or DACA, which led to a yet-unresolved litigation.

“There’s a lot of pressure on those Dreamers, and we have failed them as a country — Congress has failed them,” McAdams said. “I’d love to see us move forward, as quickly as possible, a DACA fix.”
