It is my understanding that everyone is still able to renew their DACA status. I think the Texas part gets a bit tricky to understand. The way I see it, is that it means that only individuals in Texas will be directly affected by this ruling at this time. Other states may not be impacted unless similar lawsuits are filed or if this ruling is expanded upon by higher courts.

One notable point is that the panel has concluded that deportation protections provided under DACA can be legally separated from the work permits granted to beneficiaries.

This suggests that if one aspect of DACA is found to be illegal or unconstitutional, it may not necessarily affect other components, such as work authorization.

In summary, the panel's determination suggests that DACA's components can be considered separately in legal contexts. This could potentially impact how courts approach challenges against the program in the future.
