DACA rescission 2.0 is good policy. Amnesty is not

Even those who cheered the Supreme Court’s controversial ruling last month regarding the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program had to know the battle wasn’t over. It was, at best, a temporary stay of execution for DACA on purely technical grounds.

In its June 18 decision, a 5-4 majority held that the Trump administration could rescind the Obama-era DACA program created via the Department of Homeland Security’s executive memo, but the current administration did not do so in a proper fashion because it had not given an adequate “policy” explanation for ending the program.
