DACA, the deferred deportation program for young migrants, was unlawfully created in 2012 but protection for current DACA recipients can continue for now, a federal appeals court ruled Wednesday.
The ruling by a three-judge panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals is the latest in the 10-year legal odyssey of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, and it comes as the Department of Homeland Security unveils new rules it hopes can save the program.
“People are going to lose their jobs, people could be deported, separated from their families,” said Ruiz, a DACA recipient herself. “Our lives are at stake.” Besides deferring deportation of young migrants it covers, DACA also makes it easier for recipients to get work authorizations, driver’s licenses and enroll in school.
The program was immediately attacked by critics who accused the president of overstepping his authority and usurping Congress. When then-President Donald Trump tried to end the program, he was blocked by courts that said his administration failed to observe the “notice and comment” rules required for such a sweeping change in a public program.
While the circuit court ordered Hanen to review the final rule, experts anticipate it will suffer the same fate as other immigration programs that “have gone to … Texas to die.”
