A bipartisan effort in Congress may not work on DACA.
But it has worked on winning a Congressional Gold Medal for all Filipino Veterans of World War 2.
Emil Guillermo talks with Ben DeGuzman about how the resolution was passed and approved Oct. 25 as the day the first 1,000 vets get medals. As many as 250,000 medals may be given to military personnel, or their heirs.
