JOBS!” Trump wrote. Separately, the President plans to sign an executive order today that rolls back environmental regulations set forth by former President Barack Obama.

He said many undocumented immigrants have caused harm to U.S. citizens. “Countless loved ones would not be grieving today if these policies of sanctuary cities were ended,” Sessions said at yesterday’s White House press briefing.
