Attorney General Jeff Sessions is scheduled to hold a press conference Tuesday at 11 a.m. where he will reportedly announce the administrations decision to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, with a six months delay.
Sessions will not take any questions from reporters following the briefing, according to the Department of Justices schedule.
Politico was first to report that President Donald Trump was planning to announce Tuesday that he will end DACA, a move that has seen bipartisan pushback. Sessions will face the cameras instead.
