Immigration Edition.
Just days before the ultimatum issued by conservative states to end DACA, and on the fifth anniversary of the first applications for the program, immigrant youth and supporters march outside the White House urging protective action. Also, a civil rights advocate comments on the terrorist attacks perpetrated by white supremacist groups in Charlottesville and President Trump’s long delay to condemn the KKK and other racist groups. Analysts also comment on a new hunger strike by immigrants held in solitary confinement over detention conditions in Tacoma, WA, and the recent decision by a federal court allowing TPS recipients to adjust their status to get permanent residency.
