President Donald Trump says Sunday will be a national day of prayer for those impacted by hurricane Harvey. He also praised recovery efforts.

Trump also says he will announce a decision next week on DACA -- that's the program that covers people who are illegally brought into the country as children. Top Republicans are urging Trump to keep DACA protections in place.
