Friends,

NYT has this coverage on the Trump administration’s decision to keep the DACA program in place. NYT: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/16/us/politics/trump-will-allow-dreamers-to-stay-in-us-reversing-campaign-promise.html?_r=0

The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program will remain in effect. However, the DAPA program (Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents) remains void per a new memo signed yesterday by DHS Sec. Kelly, Meaning, parents may begin being deported.
