Democrats are demanding a stand-alone vote on the DREAM Act. Similar to DACA it would allow people brought to the United States illegally as children to continue to live and work freely in the country.

X added that Congress should pass the DREAM Act "as soon as possible."

"Congress must reject Trump's action and pass DACA into law. ... This is exactly what the American people want us to do," he added.
