Supplementary notes

Original question: "The Supreme Court of the United States recently ruled that the Trump administration acted improperly in terminating the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, and it sent the case back for the Department of Homeland Security to take another look. The ruling means that the DACA program will remain in place, at least for the foreseeable future. Do you approve or disapprove of this decision?"

The DACA program permitted some individuals with an unlawful presence in the U.S. to receive a deferred action period from being deported of two years, and provided eligibility for a work permit if they had been brought to the U.S. as a child.
