Hundreds of thousands of “Dreamers” are breathing a sigh of relief, after a Supreme Court decision allows them to continue to work and be protected from deportation.
The Supreme Court voted 5-4, with the four liberal justices and Chief Justice John Roberts saying that the decision to end Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, was “arbitrary and capricious.”
The court’s decision, issued Thursday, leaves the door open for the administration to try again to end the program if they give a more detailed justification. It is unclear whether the White House would want to try again to end the program before the presidential election.
