Ivanka Trump said Monday that she thinks there needs to be “a long-term congressional fix” to protect beneficiaries of the [Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program](http://time.com/4969492/daca-dreamers-renewal-deadline/?iid=sr-link5).

“This is a very complicated issue that needs a long-term congressional fix,” Trump said at the [Fortune Most Powerful Women Summit](https://www.fortuneconferences.com/most-powerful-women-summit-2017/) in Washington. “I personally am of the opinion— and the president has stated this— that we have to figure out a good solution that protects these innocent people, many of whom were brought to the country as children.”

DACA is an Obama-era policy that shielded around 700,000 immigrants brought illegally to the country as children from deportation. The Trump Administration [announced in September](http://time.com/4927495/donald-trump-statement-daca-rescind/) that it would end. President Trump has since been working on a deal with Democrats in Congress on a legislative solution that could allow Dreamers to avoid deportation. But the White House’s [new list of demands](http://time.com/4974506/donald-trump-dreamer-daca-immigration/?xid=homepage) on immigration could hamper the negotiations.

“There has to be a long-term fix,” Ivanka Trump continued. “It can’t be bandaged over on a presidential level by another executive order.”
