Saturday night, US Citizenship and Immigration Services announced it would again be renewing the work permits of anyone already enrolled in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, protecting the children of people who came to this country illegally from being deported.

The announcement came in response to US District Judge William Alsup of San Francisco's order last week that the agency resume the program, created by President Obama through an executive action in 2012, while it is being challenged in federal court.

President Donald Trump's administration has been making aggressive moves to do just that, with the Justice Department asking the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit to overrule Judge Alsup’s decision, as reported Tuesday by the Washington Post.

But what does this mean for DACA recipients, known as the “dreamers,” as they wait for this legal fight to play out in real time?

On this week’s “TrumpWatch” on WBAI, host Jesse Lent will talk to Camille Mackler, director of immigration legal policy for The New York Immigrant Coalition (NYIC) about what the legal fight over DACA, also playing out in the halls of Congress, will mean for anyone enrolled in the program, both in the immediate term and going forward.
