Patrick Taurel, Legal Fellow at the American Immigration Council, was recently quoted in the Washington Post article "Obama’s 2012 DACA move offers a window into pros and cons of executive action."

The article discusses the successful Deferred Action for Childhood Arrrivals (DACA) program, the lessons learned from it, and the need for Congress to pass comprehensive immigration reform.

“We know it [DACA] has made a tremendous beneficial impact in the lives of hundreds of thousands of people,’’ said Patrick Taurel, a legal fellow at the American Immigration Council, a pro-immigration group. “But it’s not enough. We ultimately need Congress to step in and create a permanent solution.’’
