    The article, “Trump Prepares to End DACA,” by Priscilla Alvarez, published in The Atlantic shares information surrounding the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. The author writes, currently, President Trump plans to end the program within the next six months; this gives Congress time to decide if they want to bring the program into legislation. The article states that DACA was created by President Obama to protect immigrants who came to the United States as children, but many argued that the program was unconstitutional because only Congress has the power to make immigration laws. The author says Obama also tried to create a similar program for the parents of immigrant children, but it was shut down. Another attempt to expand these…

    On September fifth of 2017, Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced that DACA will end in six months in order to give Congress time to find a solution for the 800,000 young immigrants that are part of the program. Sessions, the president and White House officials gave many reasons explaining the program’s removal, but these reasons were either false or one-sided. An article on Politifact written by Louis Jacobson, John Kruzel, Manuela Tobias and Miriam Valverde, points out all the flaws in Jeff Sessions’ announcement about ending the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. For example, in his announcement, Jeff Sessions said DACA ‘denied jobs to hundreds of thousands of Americans by allowing those same illegal aliens to take those…

    Throughout the span of the United States, the country thrived on immigrants and their families’ differences. Without these immigrants we wouldn’t have some of the greatest doctors and inventers in the world, so why would we deport DACA children? They could very well be the Einstein or another great immigrant. Our country is strongest when we embrace the vast amount of ideas and influences of our younger generation. The decision to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy interrupts the futures of the nearly 800,000 young students who have thought of the United States as home since childhood.…

    A group of students known as the Dream Act 5 practiced civil disobedience by staging a sit in inside senator McCain’s office in Tucson, Arizona in May 7, 2010. Three of the students remind me of Thoreau when he got arrested for defying the government laws for not paying his poll tax, but instead these students were switching to civil disobedience to support other students brought to the United States illegally. Henry Thoreau thought that people should live under what they believed in and not by the government rules. Like these dreamers believe that this is also a home of opportunity where they can continue with a college education. According to William Perez, The DREAMers are children of illegal immigrants.…

    The implementation of the deferred action policy has relieved the fear of deportation of some eligible undocumented immigrants. To request deferred action, an individual must file Form I-821D and Form I-765 for employment authorization. This process has been brought forward by the administration as a result of the recognition for undocumented immigrants. Through this process, individuals who came to the United States at a very small age or before their 16th birthday could request DACA. However, the DACA program process does not grant legal status to the recipients and is not a path to American citizenship and it is only a temporary relief where the dreamers may not be deported for two years.…

    House Speaker Paul D. Ryan states, ¨These kids know no other country, who were brought here by their parents and don't know another home¨ ( Somin, 2017). This quote brings up one reason why DACA needs to stay, the children do not have a say in most situations.

No child should have to be punished for something their parent does to better their child's life. Twenty five percent of DACA recipients have children who were born in the United States (Somin, 2017).…
