RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
HINCAPIE: "No. Listen. DACA has been challenged in the past. And it's lost, right? Bothth stated of Mississippi the ice agents tried to challenge DACA. It actually has survived legal muster. On the other hand though, one of the things is in DACA or dream act context we are talking about individuals who have been here for many, many years who came when they were children, who have to pass certain criteria and would then be eligible. It's not an automatic simply because you came unlawfully and you are under 18 you are eligible for that and it's -- there is a reason that this program has survived for the last years and has been in place even in the first 8 months of this administration. It makes logical sense. It's good for our economy. It's good for America. And your viewers know that. And President Trump should exercise his presidential authority. He should not allow himself to be bullied by people like Paxton in Texas."
