WASHINGTON—The Supreme Court decided June 28 to review the constitutionality of President Barack Obama’s highly controversial Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program that has for seven years prevented hundreds of thousands of young people who came to the United States as minors from being deported.
The decision is a win for the Trump administration. But it means the DACA issue will remain alive throughout the 2020 election cycle. Protections for DACA recipients are expected to remain in place while the case is being considered.
