At the request of House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), President Trump tweeted Thursday that individuals who were brought to America illegally as children ("DREAMers") "have nothing to worry about" while a decision on the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) policy is being made:

For all of those (DACA) that are concerned about your status during the 6 month period, you have nothing to worry about - No action! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 7, 2017

Trump called Pelosi on Thursday and while they were on the phone, she "asked him to tweet making clear that DREAMers won't be subject to deportation during the six-month DACA wind down," writes The New York Times' Maggie Haberman. Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced Trump's decision to end the DACA program Tuesday.

Trump, Pelosi, and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) reached an agreement Wednesday to attach Hurricane Harvey aid to a three-month debt ceiling deal, a move that was strongly opposed by Republicans. Jeva Lange
