"Well first of all my heart is with them," DeVos told CBS News's Jen Crawford in response to the Department of Justice's announcement earlier this week that Trump will end the program.


"I know this is a very difficult issue, and I know it's one with which the president has struggled, as well as all of us," said DeVos. Trump reportedly wrestled with the issue in office after he had promised to rescind the program as a candidate
.
"We are a nation of compassion, and we are also a nation of laws," DeVos added, echoing Attorney General Jeff Sessions's comments when he announced the program's termination. Trump's decision gave Congress a six-month window to replace the program with legislation
Quote:
"[It's] really up — it's Congress's role to pass the laws," DeVos argued. "We are a nation of laws, but we also a compassionate nation. So I hope that they will do their job and address this issue once and for all."

I've never seen these many positive messages for us, and I've been around since 1990. I'm liking what I'm hearing.

She shouldn't be in the position that she's in, but I'll take the support.

Agreed. I strongly believe that it's now or never. I doubt a similar situation will present itself in the future.
