President Obama's likely opponent in November's election is speaking out over Friday's new proposed immigration policy.

Mitt Romney said the President's executive order is a short-term fix that can easily be undone by future presidents and says it will make finding a long-term solution more difficult.

Romney said if he wins the White House, he'll work on creating an immigration policy that lasts.

"If I'm president, we'll do our very best to have that kind of long-term solution that provides certainty and clarity for people who come into this country through no fault of their own, by action of their parents," he said.

Romney's campaign is in Pennsylvania Saturday, a state no Republican presidential candidate has won since 1988.
