DACA Rules Illegal By Federal Judge

The federal program DACA, which gives nearly 800,000 young people legal status in the U.S., has been declared illegal by a federal judge. NBC News briefly summarizes the points of Republican governor Greg Abbott and interviews a DACA recipient.

Discussion Questions

1. Does DACA incentivize people to cross over the Southern border more frequently? What adverse effects could that have?
2. What effect would this ruling have on undocumented immigrants that have grown up in the United States?
