On June 23, 2016, a deadlocked Supreme Court left in place—at least for now—a lower court decision halting the implementation of expanded Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) and Deferred Action for Parents of Americans (DAPA). This ruling prevents an estimated five million unauthorized immigrants from gaining protection from deportation and work authorization—and it deals a significant blow to millions of families that had hoped to be able to live free from fear of separation, improve their financial future, and deepen their roots in our society.
