June 2020 DACA Decision

In a 5-4 decision, Chief Justice Roberts emphasized that the President’s actions to eliminate the program which protects thousands of young people and their families were an unacceptable violation of the Administrative Procedure Act.

The Court ruled that the Administration failed to adequately reason, plan, and prepare for the devastation such a decision would cause to thousands of American families and employers. These actions undermine the trust of the American people and the orderly enforcement of our laws and society.

Today, the Court got it right. At Dummit Fradin, we will continue to fight for a just and secure future for all of our clients.
