Trump calls for bipartisanship over immigration reform

Abstract : U.S. President Donald Trump called for bipartisanship over an immigration overhaul after a year of partisan battles when delivering his maiden State of the Union address on Tuesday night.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President Donald Trump called for bipartisanship over an immigration overhaul after a year of partisan battles when delivering his maiden State of the Union address on Tuesday night.

Trump said that his administration had met with both Democrats and Republicans to craft a bipartisan approach to immigration reform, adding that both chambers of Congress will vote on a package over the next few weeks.

His remarks came amid tough negations between Democrats and Republicans over the fate of so-called Dreamers, recipients of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, a program that shields them from deportation but was terminated by Trump last year.

An impasse between bipartisan lawmakers over this issue led to a government shutdown earlier this month and could trigger another in the coming weeks if their divide remains unresolved.
