Washington: On Saturday officials said not accepting request from individuals who had never granted deferred action under DACA. As federal government that it will once against start accepting renewal requests for a program that shields from deportation young immigrants who were brought illegally to the US as children. With statement from USCIS that “until further notice”, the Obama-era program Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals known as DACA, will be operated on the terms in place before it was rescinded in September when President Trump moved to end it.”
The decision came after a federal judge in California issued a nation- wide injunction on Tuesday ordering the trump administration to resume the DACA program, with agency saying on Saturday that people who were previously granted deferred action under the program could request a renewal if it had expired before or after Sept.5, 2016. Though people who had previously received DACA but whose deferred action had expired before Sept.5.2016 cannot renew but can instead file a new request as per the agency. It noted that the same instruction would apply to anyone whose deferred action had been terminated.But officials also said they were not accepting requests from individuals who had never been granted deferred action under DACA. With supporting decision to kill it was improper, Judge William Alsup of US District Court in San Francisco wrote that the administration must maintain the DACA program on a nationwide basis” as the legal challenge to the president’s decision goes forward.
The decision — and continued furor over reports that President Trump questioned why the country has to accept immigrants from certain “shithole” countries — adds to doubts whether he and Congress can agree this week on a bill to fund large parts of the government before current funding expires Friday.Trump has said for months that he wants a DACA compromise, but on Sunday he said on Twitter: “DACA is probably dead because the Democrats don’t really want it, they just want to talk and take desperately needed money away from our Military.”
Although it was former President Barack Obama created the DACA program in 2012 to give young immigrants the ability to work legally in the United States. In attempting to end it in September, Trump argued that Obama’s actions were unconstitutional and an overreach of executive power. From that onwards a very fierce debate has taken hold in Washington as Democrats and Republican spar about how to provide relief for about 800,000 immigrants who could face deportation if the program ends with Trump and lawmakers in a one long hour’s televised meeting had on Tuesday to begin negotiation. But critics of the President’s decision to end policy sued the administration saying that shutting down the program was arbitrary and done without following the proper legal procedures.
From all on going debates lawmakers in the both parties are frustrated by the controversy Trump repeatedly has sparked as they head into week under threat of government shutdown, while Congress will continue its wrangling over the Dreamers because Republicans, though they control the House and Senate, need Democrats’ votes to pass the government-spending bill given the number of Republicans who reflexively oppose any spending measure. Later with Sunday’ rousing statement more Democrats are saying they will not back spending bill that to without protection for Dreamers as per media news.
