Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-California) took issue with President Trump’s comments on DACA.
At the Juniper Networks Aspiration Dome, where Sen. Feinstein called out the president for changing his mind on DACA and said the best strategy going forward may be to call the president’s bluff with regard to DACA.
“I hope everyone here will write to the president and tell him to knock it off,”
Sen. Feinstein is calling out President Trump on Monday, calling on the audience to remind President Trump that he made a commitment to negotiate a resolution to the DACA crisis.
In a fireside chat before some 200 business leaders, Sen. Feinstein touched on a range of issues, including gun control, cybersecurity, homelessness, and traffic.
With regard to DACA, Feinstein chided the president for changing his mind every day and said Congress must act, with or without the president’s support.

“We must get something done,” Feinstein said. “These young people are serving in our military, they are part of our schools, they care about our future, they want to be professionals, they speak the language. I hope everybody here will write to the president and tell him to knock it off.”
Sen. Feinstein says that by her reckoning, somewhere between 60 and 85 percent of Americans support the DACA program.
