Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) | Center for Immigration Studies

"This is an administrative version of the DREAM Act, which Congress has repeatedly rejected. The White House claims it’s just setting enforcement priorities, exercising “prosecutorial discretion” over whom to arrest and deport, and that those who benefit are just getting a temporary reprieve from deportation. That is a brazen lie."
