U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services said on Saturday that it has begun allowing certain young, undocumented immigrants to renew protections under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
The move comes after U.S. District Judge William Alsup issued a preliminary injunction this week blocking President Trump‘s decision to end the Obama-era program, which granted temporary reprieve from deportation to hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children, often called “dreamers.”
“Due to a federal court order, USCIS has resumed accepting requests to renew a grant of deferred action under DACA,” USCIS said in an update posted online Saturday.
“Until further notice, and unless otherwise provided in this guidance, the DACA policy will be operated on the terms in place before it was rescinded on Sept. 5, 2017,” the update said.
In his order on Tuesday, Alsup said that the Trump administration’s move to rescind DACA was done without following the proper legal procedures, and that the federal government would have to “maintain the DACA program on a nationwide basis” while legal challenges play out in court.
Trump called the order “unfair” at the time, and suggested that it would be reversed by a higher court.
“It just shows everyone how broken and unfair our Court System is when the opposing side in a case (such as DACA) always runs to the 9th Circuit and almost always wins before being reversed by higher courts,” Trump tweeted after the order came out.
Alsup’s order came in response to a lawsuit filed by California Attorney General Xavier Becerra and other state attorneys general. Becerra took to Twitter Saturday night after USCIS issued its update to encourage those eligible to reapply for DACA’s protections.
Until further notice, if you already applied for #DACA and it was expiring, this is your chance to reapply: https://t.co/itwYjimmX9

Trump rescinded the program in September, arguing that former President Barack Obama exceeded his constitutional authority in creating the program in the first place. But Trump also urged lawmakers to act swiftly to codify DACA’s protections into law.
But members of Congress have struggled to agree on a permanent legal solution for DACA recipients. Trump has insisted that any bill addressing the program must also include funding for border security and construction of his long-promised wall between the U.S. and Mexico.

So executive orders are selective eh? THIS sooo illustrates the whole con game
“So executive orders are selective eh? THIS sooo illustrates the whole con game”
Exactly right. The show must go on. I recently posted video of who is behind the mass migration, illegal immigration and multiculturalism schemes here and abroad. Trump, by his own words, is 100% behind and in love with this faction of people. All his talk and antics are nothing but show. Actions speak louder than words and time will tell and expose how the world has been conned by puppets of Zion put in place to secure world dominance for the talmudic world order.
Jamal, if you get an opportunity, watch this vid. of Monica Schaffer’s brother speaking about Monica in a maximum security prison in Germany for denying the holocaust. He covers alot of territory other than the imprisonment of his sister, well worth the watch.
Thanks Katie, I will
Jamal, here is the link to the comment I left earlier.

Yes, he is a philo”semite”, if not one to begin with. That’s how we knew he was lying. Its lips were moving and it drew breath.
This entire DACA drama is just a way slowly breaking the news to Trump supporters that they’ve been screwed.
Before the next election, another lying sack of dung is going to promise to “really throw ’em out this time”, and the morons will throw all their mindless weight behind him, and they’ll be screwed again.
And as long as the idiots are willing to believe whatever they’re told, there will be another lying sack of dung giving them the screwing they deserve for being the idiots they are.
Yes; it’s a shame that we all have to suffer for their stupidity, but you suffer for their stupidity whenever you pay for car insurance, too. In the natural world, none of these idiots would posses the wherewithal to survive, and that’s how humans advanced as a species. Now we keep ’em alive, and watch them breed more idiocy into the world.
