In Texas last week, U.S. District Judge Andrew Hanen called DACA “unlawful” and barred new applicants from applying for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. The immigration program was created via executive order by former President Barack Obama in 2012 as a stopgap measure to shield young immigrants brought to the U.S. by family members from deportation. Five years later, President Donald Trump tried to rescind the program but a Supreme Court decision issued in June 2020 rejected his attempt to do so.
