"A new precedent decision published by the Board of Immigration Appeals says being a DACA recipient is not enough reason to provide relief from deportation."
"The BIA's public decisions set the precedent and tone for how immigration judges nationwide should make decisions and how the general public should interpret immigration law and policy."
"For over a decade, DACA has endured relentless, politically motivated attacks. This decision is yet another step in dismantling the program without the government taking responsibility."
The Board of Immigration Appeals has ruled that DACA status alone does not guarantee relief from deportation. This decision affects Catalina 'Xochitl' Santiago, whose case has drawn national attention. Although she is not immediately deported, the ruling could undermine DACA protections for many others. The BIA's decisions influence immigration law and policy nationwide. This ruling is part of the Trump administration's ongoing efforts to diminish DACA protections, which have faced significant political challenges over the years.
