President Trump stressed in a new interview that he still wants a "Full package" immigration deal from Congress that includes funding for his border wall, an end to chain migration and the visa lottery system, and a permanent fix for current recipients of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.
He told Fox News host Brian Kilmeade that it's "Time to get the whole package," and stressed that border security is a key piece that he must have.
"Unless it includes a wall - and I mean a wall, a real wall - and unless it includes border security, there will be no approvals from me, because I have to either approve it or not," Trump told Fox News in an interview that aired Thursday.
The "Full package" also includes limits to chain migration and ending the visa lottery.
"Chain migration is terrible. Lottery is terrible. We certainly would like to have it in. We have to get rid of catch and release. You catch them - even if you know they're a criminal, you catch them - you have to release them by law you have to release them and then they go into society and they don't come back to the trial. It's crazy," Trump stated.
"We have the worst immigration laws in the entire world by far. Other countries laugh at us, and it's because of the Democrats. It's because of Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi."
"When you see a scene like this where these incredible parents have lost their sons and daughters it's very hard not to do that," Trump said.
Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill worked to pass an immigration bill earlier this year after the Trump administration announced it would be rescinding the DACA program as of March 5.
