DACA recipients worry their protection from deportation won't last another Trump term - eviltoast

Summary

Obama-era DACA recipients are deeply concerned about their future as Donald Trump prepares for a second term.

The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, created in 2012 to protect undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children, faces legal challenges and potential termination.

A 2021 ruling blocked new applications, and the program’s legality is under review, likely heading to the Supreme Court.

Advocates are urging the Biden administration to act quickly to support recipients, while Trump’s immigration hardline stance raises fears of deportation and family separations.
