Santa Clara County and its employees sue Trump over DACA
San Jose Mercury-News ^ | October 10, 2017 | By TATIANA SANCHEZ

Following suit with the city of San Jose and jurisdictions across the country that have vowed to protect young “Dreamers,” Santa Clara County and its employees on Tuesday will announce a lawsuit challenging President Donald Trump’s decision to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals Program.

Officials with Santa Clara County and the local Service Employees International Union will announce the lawsuit at the county government center later today. It’s the first lawsuit in the nation filed jointly by an employer and a labor union on behalf of DACA beneficiary employees, according to the county.

There were 1,740 DACA recipients in Santa Clara County who were eligible to make the October deadline for renewing the protections as the administration phases out the program, officials said.

San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo last month announced the city’s lawsuit challenging Trump’s decision to end DACA.

“DACA recipients include public servants in our own City Hall, providing public safety and other critical services to our community,” he said. “They all deserve our support and they deserve our nation’s welcome.”

What standing do these clowns have? And what harm have they endured?

None, and none.

A sitting President cannot be sued for his performance of duty. Only Congress can exercise that right. Isn’t that the law?

screw their suit

The current U.S. administration should not have to respond
or waste money defending against ANY of these frivolous lawsuits .

Including the ones filed by the STate AG of Hawaii

Screw him

In a sane Rule of Law America this sort of suit would be thrown out by the first judge to see it. Executive Orders are not the Supreme Law of the Land, even executive orders from a black homosexual Moslem President who was all the PC there is.

This case is without merit, and the plaintiff has no standing.

Oh, it’s the cereal state, never mind.

Why is living in ones own country considered a punishment?

Are they saying brown people are in some way inferior?

Correct, but the case will have to get to the Supreme Court for that ruling because you'll never get in the 9th Circuit.
