Immigrant Rights Advocates Tell Congress to 'Step Up' After Court Declares DACA Illegal

A panel of a federal appeals court overturned the DACA policy that protects immigrants who have grown up in the US.

There are two more stages of appeal before a final judgment, but right-wing judges are likely to eliminate it. What is needed is to pass a law explicitly to give then residency, and the opportunity to apply for citizenship. But this will be hard to do, with the Senate split 51-50 and no way to eliminate the filibuster.
