The Trump administration on Tuesday announced that it was halting applications to an Obama-era program that shields some illegal immigrants from deportations as it considers the policy’s future — just weeks after the Supreme Court shut down efforts to halt the program.
The Supreme Court ruled last month that the administration’s decision to rescind the Deferred Action on Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program was done in an “arbitrary and capricious” manner although they did not rule on the merits of the program itself.
As a result, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced Tuesday that as it considers the future of the program, it will reject all initial requests for protection, as well as applications for Employment Authorization Documents.
“As the Department continues looking at the policy and considers future action, the fact remains that Congress should act on this matter,” acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf said in a statement. “There are important policy reasons that may warrant the full rescission of the DACA policy.”
It is also renewing existing protections for only one year, rather than two. more
Cancel it.
They need to leave a few down there or who’s going to get all the money the ones up here are sending.
I am not sure if this will pass the “requirements” that the Supremes put in their previous decision (IMO idiotic, but I am not a lawyer and I didn’t stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night).
There will be an immediate lawsuit and some liberal judge will say they have to take new applications until a complete plan is put in. The goalposts will be continually moved until the President stops trying (not likely), or he is out of office.

OK, judges. You made a ruling, now do something about it.
Besides, IIRC, most DACA applicants wouldn’t pass current requirements anyway; educated, gainfully employed, paying taxes, not a welfare moocher, no arrest/conviction record.
Nuke it from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.
