Hillary Clinton is promising not to allow a Supreme Court ruling deter her in her dogged commitment to bring about comprehensive immigration reform.

Just hours after the high court rejected President Obama's 2014 executive actions on immigration that stood to shield as many as 5 million families from the sting of deportation, Clinton doubled down on her vow to enact sweeping reforms over the first 100 days of her administration.

High Court Deadlocked on Issue 

In the case of the U.S. vs. Texas, the high court deadlocked 4-4, essentially rendering a lower court's earlier ruling negating Obama's actions the law of the land.

"My heart is really breaking for the 5 million people in this country who have been waiting for the decision and are facing deportation, living with fear every single day," the presumptive Democratic nominee told Telemundo's José Díaz-Balart. "Throughout my campaign, I've been talking to so many people who were so hopeful, you know families affected by these actions."

Clinton's pledge included a promise to even "go further" than the Obama administration has in bringing about the kind of legislation she feels is necessary.

"I'm going to be doing everything I can, using whatever tools I have as president to remove the fear from families and to stop the raids and the roundups," she said. "We're gonna get to comprehensive immigration reform when I am president."

Trump has Plan to Deport Millions

By contrast, presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump has vowed to deport as many as 11 million undocumented immigrants if he is elected.

Trump, who marked the launch of his campaign by deriding Mexicans as "criminals," has also pledged to build a wall along the Mexican border to further keep out immigrants.

In the wake of the Supreme Court's ruling, Trump insisted the ruling "blocked one of the most unconstitutional actions ever taken by the President."

Clinton added their contrasting views display just how high the stakes are for the upcoming general election.

"Donald Trump has promised that if he's elected president, he will deport all these families," she added.

The former first lady recently announced she plans to be in Washington in early July to speak at the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) national convention.

Later that month, democrats will hold their national convention in Philadelphia, where Clinton is widely expected to formally emerge as the official face of her party.
