President Trump decision to end DACA was lawful, Justice Department says

The Justice Department submitted a legal brief to the Supreme Court Monday that stated President Trump acted lawfully when he decided to end the Obama-era immigration program known as DACA in September of 2017, according to a new report.

The Department of Homeland Security, “correctly, and at a minimum reasonably, concluded that DACA is unlawful,” Justice Department lawyers wrote in a brief submitted to the Supreme Court late Monday.

The Supreme Court will begin to hear arguments in November. A ruling is expected in the presidential election year, putting the high court at the center of one of the most politically charged issues of debates. A decision in favor of Trump would allow for the president to deport more than one million young adults residing in the U.S. under DACA protection, the New York Times reported.

Re: I thought DACA expired. Trump just didn’t renew.

Not that I know of.

As I recall, DACAs are required to re-certify every two years.

I think in Alsup’s case, he decided that Trump could stop new DACA applications at a certain date.

Re-certifications, as far as I know, are still allowed.

You’re being far too generous, they wanted amnesty in any way they could get it.

I suggest you pay attention to all the leftist judges blatantly defying the law and ruling against Trump.

If he did it your way they would rule against him anyway and we would still be waiting for SCOTUS to overrule them.
