After Devastating DACA Ruling, Dreamers Vow to Push for Legalization - CounterPunch.org

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

64% : Undocumented workers are far more vulnerable to employer exploitation simply because of their lack of legal status.
60% : There is a clear economic case to be made for legalizing undocumented immigrants, even outside the traditional bounds of seeing them as a source of cheap labor for the agricultural and apparel industry.
58% : Republican officials in Texas are celebrating a major political win after successfully suing the federal government over the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
45% : She suggested that a more direct pathway to cementing DACA was via the legislative process so that it is no longer beholden to the whims of Republican attorneys general, state governors or presidents.
42% : The ruling also means that those immigrants who might have been able to adjust their status under DACA are now eligible for possible deportation.
35% : Worryingly, it is the Senate parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough who decides if legalizing DACA through budget reconciliation is acceptable or not, and immigrant advocates slammed Biden's announcement that he would defer to whatever the unelected official decides on the matter.
29% : DACA has been a GOP target since 2012 when then-President Barack Obama first created it and then in 2014 expanded it via executive action.
