Kaine Marks Third Anniversary of DACA, Calls For Passage of Comprehensive Immigration Reform

In remarks on the Senate floor today, U.S. Senator Tim Kaine marked the third anniversary of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program and called on his congressional colleagues to work together to pass comprehensive immigration reform legislation. Since the program was announced in 2012, DACA has offered temporary relief from deportation more than 660,000 immigrants who arrived in the U.S. as young children, including nearly 10,000 who call Virginia home.
