House Speaker Paul Ryan says Congress and Donald Trump's transition team are trying to come up with a solution for young immigrants brought illegally to the country as kids.
Hundreds of thousands of these immigrants gained work permits and temporary deportation relief from President Barack Obama.
Trump pledged during the campaign to undo the executive action, sparking fear among immigrants that they would lose their protections and face deportation.
Ryan was questioned on a CNN town hall Thursday night by an immigrant who could face deportation if Trump reverses Obama's policies. Ryan told her he did not want to see her leave this country.
Ryan said, "What we have to do is find a way to make sure that you can get right with the law."
