Courts deliver a blow to DACA, impacting young immigrants in the Philly region and across the U.S.
Pennsylvania is home to 4,180 recipients of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, and 14,930 live in New Jersey.
A court of appeal ruled that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (also known as the “Dream Act”) was illegal, but it could remain in force for 600,000 “Dreamers”, who have already been granted the status.Former President Barack Obama, a Democrat put in place the DACA program after repeatedly stating that he didn’t have the constitutional power. This act allows illegal immigrants brought to the United States as children to stay on American soil.

The ruling indicates that DACA’s days are numbered.

It's unfortunate for the DACA people but it's the fault of their parents who were greedy and ambitious selfish and not thinking about the future of their children just being selfish and greedy and ambitious ambition will not bring happiness in the long run it never does until we remove an ambition we can never really truly be happy so all these people who think that they're coming here because of their ambitious ways will end up finding no real happiness here.
