Sec. Mullin Open to Permanent Legal Status for Those Under DACA, but No Amnesty: Report

  • On Monday, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said he and President Donald Trump are open to working with Democrats on immigration reform, though they have not yet discussed concrete policy changes.

  • Proposals could include immigrants who have lived in the country for 10 or 15 years in jobs like landscaping or hotels, while Mullin expressed openness to finding a path for DACA recipients to become legal residents.
  • Mullin, who previously worked with Democrats in Congress, noted he is fielding calls from them on bipartisan issues but firmly rejected amnesty, stating "Amnesty's never going to be a solution."
  • Cooperation remains uncertain as Trump elevated Stephen Miller, a key architect of his immigration crackdown, to chief of staff, while Mullin emphasized that any legislative pathway for DACA recipients remains up to Congress.
