Supreme Court to Review Trump’s Bid to end DACA Program

June 29, 2019:

The Supreme Court will decide whether the Trump administration had the power to end the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, known as DACA.The justices issued an order Friday saying they will hear arguments in the case in the fall & issue a decision likely by June 2020 as President Trump seeks re-election.

Trump ended DACA in 2017, five years after it was created by President Obama — prompting mass protests & a failed congressional effort to save it.

Three federal district courts & two appeals courts have blocked Trump from outright nixing the program & only one district court has ruled in his favor, USA Today reported.

Up until now, the Supreme Court had been silent on the issue. Friday’s ruling leaves in place the rulings that prohibit efforts to dismantle the program.

DACA protects about 700,000 immigrants called “Dreamers” who were brought to the US illegally as children or came with families that overstayed visas.
