DACA recipients across the St. Louis region are relieved that a federal judge ordered the Trump administration to fully reinstate the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program that allows young immigrants to stay in the country.
President Barack Obama started the program in 2012 to allow people who entered the U.S. without authorization as children to remain. But the Trump administration stopped taking new applications in 2017.
The judge’s decision last week extends the one-year work permits recipients receive under the Trump rules to two years, as originally implemented. It also allows DACA recipients to apply to travel abroad and opens the application process to hundreds of thousands of now-eligible young immigrants.
