Zusammenfassung:In Oct 2021, the Department of Homeland Security issued a notice of proposed rulemaking that would essentially codify Pres Barack Obama's 2012 executive order allowing the children of immigrants who arrived in the country illegally to obtain legal status. That, in turn, would permit them to work and attend school here. Obama's order for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) proved to be highly contentious. Pres Donald Trump moved to repeal it in 2018, prompting a lawsuit to stop the repeal. The Supreme Court ruled that the repeal itself was invalid but indicated that it could be possible for an administration to legally repeal DACA in the future. The Trump administration tried again to do so, but that effort ended in Jan 2021. The Biden administration now intends to make DACA's future more secure. Here, Brannon and McGee examine the economic effects of DACA on the US economy.
