John Kelly tells Democrats that DACA program to protect 'Dreamers' is in jeopardy
Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly told Democratic lawmakers Wednesday that the fate of former President Obama's DACA program to protect so-called "Dreamers" from deportation may be in serious trouble.
CNN and Politico reported that Kelly told members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus that though he personally supports Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, he is doubtful it would sustain a pending court challenge, and he would not commit to defending it.
"It's not a pretty picture," Sen. Bob Menendez D-N.J., who attended the closed-door meeting, told reporters. "The legal authorities that he's spoken to suggest that DACA cannot be sustained legally. We have a different view."
Obama's 2012 DACA program provides deportation protection and work permits to immigrants who were brought to the U.S. illegally as children.
