Trump talked about DACA on Fox interview - Page 2

How does a green card by YOM KIPPUR sound?!?

It sounds to me like there's going to be a SIGNIFICANT amount of executive action in the coming weeks, not sure what, but for sure I foresee some sort orders being signed.

If I was Democrats, I'd be launching a massive effort to introduce bills and counter this because for sure if not they will be losing hispanic voters. Democrats have to introduce their bills immediately.

He keeps talking about the new powers he has been granted with DACA, anybody care to look into that instead of being an NPC with the orange man bullshit? What can he do?

Good news. And he gave us a timeline. 2 weeks to a month. Can't wait what he is going to introduce for us.

Oh boy...expect a snowflake meltdown shortly...sponsored by UWD and Co...

There isn't any new powers. SCOTUS said the administration failed to go through the full APA process, exactly how DAPA was killed. There is nothing stopping the administration from going through the APA process and ending DACA.

There really isn't anything better. AP, renewals, new applications should be accepted right now but I don't know if DHS are processing those. By law they should be. The best he can do is do allow something longer than 2 years for the EAD. However, republicans think goodlatte / bridge act is "good" and might possibly claim it's better than DACA, but it's not.

Since they're strongly pushing merit based immigration, it makes sense that'd they want stricter requirements (perhaps to DACA as well) and change DACA to where you need to have more requirements that before in terms of education, income, etc. For example, if you get a traffic ticket you won't be able to renew. To the Trump adminstration, that's a "better" DACA.

We need to see the text, this is all speculation.

When he say "better", I don't think he means better for us.

I think What he is trying to do is go so wild on DACA knowing a red state will sue him and then shut the whole thing down immediately.
