US President Donald Trump said on Friday he will sign an executive order on immigration in the next few weeks with a road to citizenship for migrants who are in the United States illegally but arrived in the country as children.
In an interview with Spanish-language TV network Telemundo, Mr Trump said one aspect of the measure will involve Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), the program that protects hundreds of thousands of such immigrants - often called "Dreamers" - from deportation.
"I'm going to do a big executive order. ... And I'm going to make DACA a part of it," Mr Trump said. "We're going to have a road to citizenship."
The US Supreme Court last month dealt a major setback to Mr Trump's hardline immigration policies, blocking his bid to end DACA, which was created in 2012 by his Democratic predecessor Barack Obama.
The ruling did not prevent Mr Trump from trying again to end the program. But his administration may find it difficult to rescind it - and win any ensuing legal battle - before the November 3 election in which he is seeking a second term in office.
Mr Trump's remarks drew an immediate rebuke from his fellow Republican, Senator Ted Cruz, who wrote on Twitter that "it would be a huge mistake if Trump tries to illegally expand amnesty."
"There is zero constitutional authority for a President to create a “road to citizenship” by executive fiat," Mr Cruz wrote.

Explainer: Tanween Design Programme
Non-profit arts studio Tashkeel launched this annual initiative with the intention of supporting budding designers in the UAE. This year, three talents were chosen from hundreds of applicants to be a part of the sixth creative development programme. These are architect Abdulla Al Mulla, interior designer Lana El Samman and graphic designer Yara Habib.
The trio have been guided by experts from the industry over the course of nine months, as they developed their own products that merge their unique styles with traditional elements of Emirati design. This includes laboratory sessions, experimental and collaborative practice, investigation of new business models and evaluation.
It is led by British contemporary design project specialist Helen Voce and mentor Kevin Badni, and offers participants access to experts from across the world, including the likes of UK designer Gareth Neal and multidisciplinary designer and entrepreneur, Sheikh Salem Al Qassimi.
The final pieces are being revealed in a worldwide limited-edition release on the first day of Downtown Designs at Dubai Design Week 2019. Tashkeel will be at stand E31 at the exhibition.
Lisa Ball-Lechgar, deputy director of Tashkeel, said: “The diversity and calibre of the applicants this year … is reflective of the dynamic change that the UAE art and design industry is witnessing, with young creators resolute in making their bold design ideas a reality.”
