Supreme Court Blocks DAPA and DACA Plus.
Dealing a serious blow against millions of immigrant families, the US Supreme Court split and reached no decision on the case US v. Texas, leaving in place a ruling blocking the deferred deportation programs known as DAPA and DACA plus. An immigration law expert comments on the meaning of the no decision, leading Dreamers report from Washington and Phoenix on ongoing protests, and a policy advocate talks about plans to involve immigrant families as “ambassadors for the vote” towards November.
