The US Supreme Court on Tuesday takes up one of the most important cases of the term —the fate of DACA
"They did not want to take responsibility for it," said Ted Olson, the Washington, D.C., lawyer who will defend DACA before the Supreme Court in oral arguments on Tuesday."Instead of saying, 'We want to eliminate DACA because we don't like the program, because we want to send a message,' they didn't say any of those things. They say, 'Mother made us do it'" by claiming it's illegal.
Figures show that over 90 percent of DACA participants have a job and nearly half are in school. Many don't speak the language or know the culture of their home countries. Apple CEO Tim Cook filed a separate friend of court brief in support of DACA participants."They, and immigrants like them, are vital to Apple's success," it said."They spark creativity and help drive innovation. They are among our most driven and selfless colleagues."
