That is if this policy review leads to any temp relief at all.

I agree.
IF they expand deferred action, it will most likely be parents of USC minor children first.
It's something they have been building upon for quite some time particularly emphasizing the impact deportations have on these kids that end up in foster care.

Gutierrez has begun putting together a new strategy: defining the next group of undocumented immigrants that would be politically acceptable for executive action, in the same way DREAMers were when Obama announced deferred action in 2012.
The new push includes the parents of U.S. citizens and families with an undocumented immigrant who is also a member of the U.S. military.
The tabled draft of the CHC resolution stated that “an estimated 200,000 deportees in a two-year period were reported to be the parents of U.S. citizens, most of whom were born and raised in the United States” and that “there are more than 5,000 children in the U.S. child welfare system because a parent has been detained or deported, and a majority of those children are U.S. citizens.”

Some figures were thrown around and only about 4 million undocumented people would be helped.
