The Trump administration announced on Tuesday that it would begin phasing out the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, program on March 5, 2018.
The program, introduced by President Barack Obama through executive action five years ago, offered certain young undocumented immigrants, typically brought to the United States as children, work permits and a two-year renewable reprieve from deportation.
Since the program’s inception, nearly 800,000 have signed up. In many states, these so-called Dreamers have been eligible not only to work, but also to receive driver’s licenses and in-state tuition at public colleges.
