"content": "\u003cp>The Biden administration on Monday resumed efforts to shield hundreds of thousands of immigrants who came to the United States as young children from deportation, the latest maneuver in a long-running drama over the policy’s legality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration proposed a rule that attempts to satisfy concerns of a federal judge in Houston who ruled in July that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program was illegal, largely because the Obama administration bypassed procedural requirements when it took effect in 2012. The new rule mirrors the Obama-era initiative, recreating the 2012 policy and seeking to put it on firmer ground by going through the federal regulatory process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. District Judge Andrew Hanen, an appointee of President George W. Bush, said the Obama administration overstepped its authority and did not properly seek public feedback. He allowed for renewals to continue but prohibited new enrollments. The Biden administration is appealing.\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003cbr>\nThe \u003ca href=\"https://www.federalregister.gov/public-inspection/2021-20898/deferred-action-for-childhood-arrivals\">205-page proposal solicits public feedback to address Hanen’s concern\u003c/a>, though it is unclear if that would be enough. The proposed regulation will be published Tuesday in the Federal Register, triggering a 60-day comment period and ensuring that it is unlikely to take effect for several months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The office of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who challenged DACA with eight other states before Hanen, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11887630\" hero=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/09/RS51406_021_Fremont_MaiwandMarket_08272021-qut-1020x680.jpg\"]The Obama administration created DACA with a memo issued by then-Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano. It was intended as a stopgap measure until Congress legislated a permanent solution, which never occurred.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And because DACA isn’t the product of legislation, it falls into a category of policies that can more easily be changed from one administration to the next.

Hanen, based in Texas, argued that DACA was created illegally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The decision does not end legal protections for the roughly 616,000 current DACA participants.

Wong\u003c/strong>: Judge Hanen ruled that DACA is unlawful because the creation of DACA violated the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), which requires public comment before changing policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling by Hanen based on the APA is a bit ironic because the last several years of the battle over DACA in the courts saw DACA being preserved mostly because of the APA as well. The Trump administration tried to end (DACA). DACA advocates [then] made a legal argument that the way that the Trump administration tried to end DACA violated the APA. Therefore, district courts all the way up to the Supreme Court said that DACA should stay. And now we have Judge Hanen relying on the same Administrative Procedure Act to essentially rule that DACA is illegal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>What is the immediate impact of this decision?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Tom K. Wong\u003c/strong>: The immediate impact is already being felt. Those who are first-time applicants, they should have received text notification from USCIS saying that biometrics appointments are now canceled. So part of applying for DACA not only includes a paper application, but once that's received by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), then individuals go in for biometrics, for example, to provide their fingerprints. So those appointments are already being canceled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the approximately 600,000 active DACA recipients, this means more uncertainty and more limbo. We essentially had four years of uncertainty over DACA under the Trump administration. And this particular ruling — although it does not say that current active DACA recipients will lose their status — adds to the sort of uncertainty that the recipients are living with on a day to day [basis] and makes more vivid the importance of a permanent legislative solution for not just DACA recipients, but for undocumented immigrants more generally.\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The Experiences of DACA Recipients\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>What was your reaction to the ruling?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Ju Hong, DACA recipient and member of Immigrants Rising\"]'I'm really tired and I cannot live like this anymore with this fear ...

And so the failure of the DREAM Act in 2010, followed by a looming reelection of President Obama in early 2012, combined with potential Republican DREAM Act legislation being introduced by then-Republican presidential hopeful Marco Rubio.

The program provides temporary protection from deportation, and work authorization, to undocumented immigrants who came to the U.S. as children. Hanen, based in Texas, argued that DACA was created illegally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The decision does not end legal protections for the roughly 616,000 current DACA participants. However, the legal decision does suspend approvals of new applications and leaves the door open for DACA to be terminated in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Biden has \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2021/07/17/statement-by-president-joe-biden-on-daca-and-legislation-for-dreamers/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pledged to appeal the ruling\u003c/a> and called on Congress to protect so-called Dreamers and create a path to citizenship for millions of people who lack legal status in the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On July 19, KQED Forum host Mina Kim spoke with the following guests to get an overview of the legal decision and what happens next, and also to hear from immigrants who could be affected:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://polisci.ucsd.edu/people/faculty/faculty-directory/currently-active-faculty/wong-profile.html\">Tom K.

Wong\u003c/strong>: Judge Hanen ruled that DACA is unlawful because the creation of DACA violated the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), which requires public comment before changing policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling by Hanen based on the APA is a bit ironic because the last several years of the battle over DACA in the courts saw DACA being preserved mostly because of the APA as well. The Trump administration tried to end (DACA). DACA advocates [then] made a legal argument that the way that the Trump administration tried to end DACA violated the APA. Therefore, district courts all the way up to the Supreme Court said that DACA should stay. And now we have Judge Hanen relying on the same Administrative Procedure Act to essentially rule that DACA is illegal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>What is the immediate impact of this decision?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Tom K. Wong\u003c/strong>: The immediate impact is already being felt. Those who are first-time applicants, they should have received text notification from USCIS saying that biometrics appointments are now canceled. So part of applying for DACA not only includes a paper application, but once that's received by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), then individuals go in for biometrics, for example, to provide their fingerprints. So those appointments are already being canceled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the approximately 600,000 active DACA recipients, this means more uncertainty and more limbo. We essentially had four years of uncertainty over DACA under the Trump administration. And this particular ruling — although it does not say that current active DACA recipients will lose their status — adds to the sort of uncertainty that the recipients are living with on a day to day [basis] and makes more vivid the importance of a permanent legislative solution for not just DACA recipients, but for undocumented immigrants more generally.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

I was tired of hearing this news all over again. I just had to let out the frustration with other DACA recipients who are applying for it, and they all felt frustrated and angry, and this gave another affirmation that DACA is temporary and we cannot live in this limbo every two years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Honestly, I'm really tired and I cannot live like this anymore with this fear and this anxiety and the stress, I think enough is enough. I've had DACA since 2012. I've been undocumented since 2001.

All of these attacks in our communities have taken a toll on us physically and emotionally. The last few years have been very difficult. We were physically at the steps of the Supreme Court and we celebrated a victory last year when we received the opinion of the Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We thought with the change of administration, perhaps there was new hope renewed. This takes us back. It's unbelievable that we're in this place yet again where our livelihoods are compromised, where the uncertainty is still there and our lives are still very much in limbo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DACA allowed so many of us to apply for opportunities we never even imagined.

When I applied in 2014, I was hesitant. I didn't trust the government. I wasn't sure whether it would be approved and we would be turning over all of our information, that on its own is a little bit scary to apply for the first time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I understand why some folks hesitated to apply. Once you apply, we know that the program can be destroyed at any moment, as it was during the Trump administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I applied in 2014, they told me it would be political suicide for anyone to attack the program. Yet here we are. Where not only the prior administration attacked it and we had to step up and sue the federal government ourselves, but now the state of Texas is doing its own lawsuit and we don't know what's going to happen with the program yet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11881810\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 2560px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11881810\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/07/GettyImages-1329566422-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Two people wearing facemasks hold up signs that say, 'Immigrant rights are human rights!' and 'No human is illegal.

And so the failure of the DREAM Act in 2010, followed by a looming reelection of President Obama in early 2012, combined with potential Republican DREAM Act legislation being introduced by then-Republican presidential hopeful Marco Rubio. That was the political backdrop for the announcement of DACA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Mendez and De León were both born in Guatemala and moved to the United States when they were young children. They married two years ago and now live in San Rafael where she works as a Montessori preschool teacher and he works as a district manager for a cellphone company. After applying, and then renewing for the past several years, they have a few suggestions for those looking to apply.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://prernalal.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Prerna Lal\u003c/a> who is a human rights and immigration lawyer and advocate based in Berkeley, also has some tips. Lal describes how the process requires quite a bit of documentation, “You can’t just give me your passport and expect this process to be done,” they said. An added challenge is assembling all the documents together and organized during a pandemic, Lal said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are some tips for those looking to apply for DACA — from people who have done it before.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"apply\">\u003c/a>Apply as soon as possible\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>While the announcement that DACA can now be renewed is a win for undocumented communities, fear and mistrust still linger, and the future is uncertain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. District Judge Andrew Hanen, a Republican appointee in Southern Texas, has \u003ca href=\"https://www.texastribune.org/2020/12/18/texas-daca-challenge/\">scheduled a hearing\u003c/a> on the case for Dec. 22, 2020. Hanen notably blocked an expansion of DACA in 2015 but also \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/08/31/643814735/texas-judge-says-daca-is-probably-illegal-but-leaves-it-in-place\">declined to issue a preliminary injunction\u003c/a> on it in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Lal, who has been keeping a close eye on the court proceedings, said the next step is that DACA will be in front of what could be an unfavorable judge. “So, I would say to apply as soon as possible because, we don’t really know … what will happen,” Lal said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Lal notes, if you apply right away, you will likely still be able to move forward even if the program is struck down for others in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the Trump administration threatened to take away DACA and fought it all the way to the Supreme Court, many people still wonder if it will last.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It turned on the switch in my head that [DACA] is not a sure thing,” De León said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Still, at any time, they can take it away and you have no control of it,” he said, while reflecting on the benefits that DACA has brought to him and many other immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11852141\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11852141\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/12/RS29491_IMG_1387-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/12/RS29491_IMG_1387-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/12/RS29491_IMG_1387-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/12/RS29491_IMG_1387-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/12/RS29491_IMG_1387-qut-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/12/RS29491_IMG_1387-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A stack of completed applications await review by attorneys at Services, Immigrant Rights, and Education Network (SIREN) in San Jose on Feb. 7, 2018. In 2018, the nonprofit offered financial aid to DACA applicants unable to afford the $495 renewal fee. \u003ccite>(Farida Jhabvala Romero/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"check\">\u003c/a>Check with a local community organization or lawyer\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>In applications like these, people can also rely on community organizations to guide them through the process. For Mendez and De León, \u003ca href=\"https://canalalliance.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Canal Alliance\u003c/a> — a community organization in Marin County — was of great help when they first applied.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You need to have someone to rely on,” Mendez said. “It benefits people because you see others go through that program from the community and it is seen as an encouragement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lal also recommends checking the \u003ca href=\"https://www.immigrationadvocates.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Immigration Advocates Network\u003c/a> to find a local legal service. Some organizations, they said, even have funding to pay the DACA application fee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lastly, Lal also suggests having a conversation with a lawyer to make sure the applicant is not eligible for a different kind of visa or path to citizenship. Lal said that at least 20-30% of people who seek assistance with DACA are eligible for another legal mechanism toward citizenship — such as a U-Visa, special immigrant juvenile status or something else.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/prernaplal/status/1336849853419286529\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"organized\">\u003c/a>Keep Everything Organized\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Like any application process requiring you to assemble a variety of papers, a key tip is simply keeping everything together so you easily find it. “Keep everything in file, have everything organized,” Mendez said. “That way you could always look back and, if anything happens, you have evidence that you have it and it’s all in one folder.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mendez and De León both agreed that the process takes the longest the first time you apply. However, the renewal process is way simpler — even moreso if you have all of your documents on hand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Make copies of everything. Make sure you don’t have one single copy of it. It definitely helps your review process to literally copy and paste,” De León said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lal notes that the one requirement people may be ignoring, or may be a challenge, is the “proof of physical presence on June 15, 2012 — that you have to show that you were present in the U.S. on that date — if you don’t have the exact date you can show something before, something after.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003cbr>\nNow that this date is so long ago, it could be hard to show that from a documentation standpoint.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think people should consult a lawyer, or at least consult with a nonprofit,” Lal said. “It is not as straight-forward as before.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"application\">\u003c/a>Check Your Application Before Sending\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>De León also says people should double and triple check your application before sending it to avoid any type of mistake in the forms, since this can prolong the process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/_NestorRuiz/status/1337881634780160015\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Additional Resources:\u003c/h3>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://www.immigrationhelp.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Immigration Help\u003c/a> offers free assistance\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://immigrantsrising.org/resource/steps-to-apply-for-daca-for-the-first-time/#\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Step-by-step guide from Immigrants Rising\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Official \u003ca href=\"https://www.uscis.gov/humanitarian/humanitarian-parole/consideration-of-deferred-action-for-childhood-arrivals-daca\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services\u003c/a> (USCIS) website\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://www.nilc.org/issues/daca/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">National Immigration Law Center\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>UC Berkeley \u003ca href=\"https://undocu.berkeley.edu/legal-support-overview/what-is-daca/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Undocumented Students Program\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Hanen notably blocked an expansion of DACA in 2015 but also \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/08/31/643814735/texas-judge-says-daca-is-probably-illegal-but-leaves-it-in-place\">declined to issue a preliminary injunction\u003c/a> on it in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Lal, who has been keeping a close eye on the court proceedings, said the next step is that DACA will be in front of what could be an unfavorable judge. “So, I would say to apply as soon as possible because, we don’t really know … what will happen,” Lal said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Lal notes, if you apply right away, you will likely still be able to move forward even if the program is struck down for others in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the Trump administration threatened to take away DACA and fought it all the way to the Supreme Court, many people still wonder if it will last.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It turned on the switch in my head that [DACA] is not a sure thing,” De León said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Still, at any time, they can take it away and you have no control of it,” he said, while reflecting on the benefits that DACA has brought to him and many other immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11852141\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11852141\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/12/RS29491_IMG_1387-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/12/RS29491_IMG_1387-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/12/RS29491_IMG_1387-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/12/RS29491_IMG_1387-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/12/RS29491_IMG_1387-qut-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/12/RS29491_IMG_1387-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A stack of completed applications await review by attorneys at Services, Immigrant Rights, and Education Network (SIREN) in San Jose on Feb. 7, 2018. In 2018, the nonprofit offered financial aid to DACA applicants unable to afford the $495 renewal fee. \u003ccite>(Farida Jhabvala Romero/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"check\">\u003c/a>Check with a local community organization or lawyer\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>In applications like these, people can also rely on community organizations to guide them through the process. For Mendez and De León, \u003ca href=\"https://canalalliance.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Canal Alliance\u003c/a> — a community organization in Marin County — was of great help when they first applied.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You need to have someone to rely on,” Mendez said. “It benefits people because you see others go through that program from the community and it is seen as an encouragement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lal also recommends checking the \u003ca href=\"https://www.immigrationadvocates.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Immigration Advocates Network\u003c/a> to find a local legal service. Some organizations, they said, even have funding to pay the DACA application fee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lastly, Lal also suggests having a conversation with a lawyer to make sure the applicant is not eligible for a different kind of visa or path to citizenship. Lal said that at least 20-30% of people who seek assistance with DACA are eligible for another legal mechanism toward citizenship — such as a U-Visa, special immigrant juvenile status or something else.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

However, the renewal process is way simpler — even moreso if you have all of your documents on hand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Make copies of everything. Make sure you don’t have one single copy of it. It definitely helps your review process to literally copy and paste,” De León said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lal notes that the one requirement people may be ignoring, or may be a challenge, is the “proof of physical presence on June 15, 2012 — that you have to show that you were present in the U.S. on that date — if you don’t have the exact date you can show something before, something after.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Pero este otoño pasado, un panel de tres jueces de la corte de apelaciones del 9o circuito falló en favor de Trump y declaró que el Presidente sí podía terminar con estos programas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los demandantes de ese caso, un grupo de tepesianos y sus hijos estadounidenses, planean solicitar una segunda revisión del caso por la corte del 9o circuito. La fecha más temprana en que oficiales de inmigracion podrían anular los permisos de trabajos de personas provenientes de El Salvador es a principios de noviembre del 2021. Inmigrantes de otros países podrían perder su amparo tan pronto como el próximo marzo, dijo Ahilan Arulanantham, abogado de la Unión estadounidense por las libertades civiles, quien representa a los demandantes en este caso.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Por otro lado, las cortes se han pronunciado en favor de preservar a DACA para los casi 650 mil DREAMers que tienen este estatus. Sin embargo, el gobierno de Trump ya no acepta solicitudes para este amparo luego de que intentó anular este programa en 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A principios de este año, la Corte Suprema falló en contra el gobierno federal y decidió que este no siguió la ley cuando trató de terminar DACA. Desde entonces, la administración de Trump se rehusa aceptar nuevas aplicaciones, lo que va en contra de fallos de tribunales inferiores.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>El Instituto de política migratoria estima que más de 685 mil otros jóvenes son elegibles para aplicar para este programa, aparte de los recipientes actuales de DACA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label ='Historias Relacionadas' tag='kqed-en-espanol']Según cálculos de la organización bipartidista de investigación y abogacía \"New American Economy\", casi todos los beneficiarios de DACA y TPS trabajan y pagan alrededor de $5.5 mil millones de dólares en impuestos cada año. Muchos trabajan en sectores considerados esenciales durante la pandemia, como el cuidado de salud, la educación, cuidado de personas mayores, la construcción y la producción y distribución de comida.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>En California, alrededor de 27 mil 700 tepesianos y 56 mil 900 recipientes de DACA laboran en posiciones de primera línea, o sea que conllevan más riesgo de ser contagiados, afirma el Centro para el progreso estadounidense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>De manera similar a Jesús Perlera, Karla López también es una trabajadora esencial. DACA ha permitido que López, de 27 años y residente de San José, trabaje como asistente de enfermería y estudie en un programa de enfermería de una universidad comunitaria.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>La Junta directiva de enfermería de California requiere que todos los estudiantes de esa carrera posean un número de seguro social, algo que López no tenía hasta que aplicó a DACA en 2012, el año en que Obama creó el programa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"DACA me ayudó tanto al aplicar a todos los trabajos que he tenido\", dijo López, cuyo padre la trajo a Estados Unidos desde México cuando ella tenía tan solo 10 años. Ella ahora está criando a sus dos hijos. \"Me ha abierto muchas puertas\".\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>López trabaja en un asilo y cuida a personas mayores. Ella dice que no ha parado de trabajar durante la pandemia, incluso cuando estaba embarazada. Ella corre el riesgo de contagiarse y llevar el virus a su casa, donde se encuentra su hijo de 4 años.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Era algo muy espantoso\", dijo López, quien actualmente está bajo licencia de maternidad luego de dar a luz a su segundo hijo. \"¿Pero sabes qué? Es mi trabajo. Esta es la responsabilidad que yo escogí\".\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>López dijo que el triunfo de Biden la hizo sentir como si perteneciera de nuevo dentro de los Estados Unidos, después de temer por su futuro durante los cuatro años del gobierno de Trump.

Muchos trabajan en sectores considerados esenciales durante la pandemia, como el cuidado de salud, la educación, cuidado de personas mayores, la construcción y la producción y distribución de comida.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>En California, alrededor de 27 mil 700 tepesianos y 56 mil 900 recipientes de DACA laboran en posiciones de primera línea, o sea que conllevan más riesgo de ser contagiados, afirma el Centro para el progreso estadounidense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>De manera similar a Jesús Perlera, Karla López también es una trabajadora esencial. DACA ha permitido que López, de 27 años y residente de San José, trabaje como asistente de enfermería y estudie en un programa de enfermería de una universidad comunitaria.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>La Junta directiva de enfermería de California requiere que todos los estudiantes de esa carrera posean un número de seguro social, algo que López no tenía hasta que aplicó a DACA en 2012, el año en que Obama creó el programa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"DACA me ayudó tanto al aplicar a todos los trabajos que he tenido\", dijo López, cuyo padre la trajo a Estados Unidos desde México cuando ella tenía tan solo 10 años. Ella ahora está criando a sus dos hijos. \"Me ha abierto muchas puertas\".\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>López trabaja en un asilo y cuida a personas mayores. Ella dice que no ha parado de trabajar durante la pandemia, incluso cuando estaba embarazada. Ella corre el riesgo de contagiarse y llevar el virus a su casa, donde se encuentra su hijo de 4 años.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Era algo muy espantoso\", dijo López, quien actualmente está bajo licencia de maternidad luego de dar a luz a su segundo hijo. \"¿Pero sabes qué? Es mi trabajo. Esta es la responsabilidad que yo escogí\".\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>López dijo que el triunfo de Biden la hizo sentir como si perteneciera de nuevo dentro de los Estados Unidos, después de temer por su futuro durante los cuatro años del gobierno de Trump.

But his right to be here, and his permit to work, depend on a humanitarian protection — known as temporary protected status (TPS) — that President Trump has been fighting to end for nationals from El Salvador and five other countries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Jesus Perlera\"]'I feel more relaxed and calm. Now I hope this new Biden administration fulfills what it has promised us.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Throughout Trump's presidency, Perlera has spent many sleepless nights at his home in Concord, worrying that if his TPS ends, he could lose his business and be separated from his two U.S.-born children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So when Joe Biden won the presidential election earlier this month, signaling a sea change in immigration policy, Perlera was deeply relieved.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I felt an enormous amount of peace,” Perlera said in Spanish. “I feel more relaxed and calm. Now I hope this new Biden administration fulfills what it has promised us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perlera is one of nearly a quarter of a million immigrants in California — including an estimated 85,000 essential workers — whose temporary permits to live and work in the U.S. could be protected under Biden. The president-elect is expected to use his executive power to reverse many of Trump’s attempts to crackdown on immigration, including his efforts to strip TPS from most recipients and to end Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, a program that benefits hundreds of thousands of young undocumented people known as Dreamers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Biden has also promised to pursue a broader immigration reform bill that grants a pathway to citizenship to all 11 million undocumented immigrants in the U.S. — including DACA and TPS holders — succeeding in that effort will be a much heavier lift.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For one thing, to pass legislation, Biden will need a majority of votes in the Senate, which he is not guaranteed to have. But the new president will also have to wrestle with more pressing priorities at the beginning of his administration, said Muzaffar Chishti, a senior fellow at the Migration Policy Institute in Washington, D.C.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The pandemic is going to dominate the oxygen for at least one year,” said Chishti. “The presidency will have very little time to do anything in a focused way on anything other than health and economic issues.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama also took office with strong mandates to create paths to citizenship for many of the nation’s undocumented immigrants, Chishti noted, but their first terms were consumed instead with crises: the 9/11 attacks for Bush and the Great Recession for Obama.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Biden is inheriting another piece of bad luck here. Just imagine, with a high unemployment rate, how do you argue for legalizing 11 million people?” he said. “It's a very hard sell, and therefore, I consider that kind of big immigration bill very difficult in the short run.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11848707\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11848707\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46071_006_KQED_Oakland_TPSPort_11182020-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46071_006_KQED_Oakland_TPSPort_11182020-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46071_006_KQED_Oakland_TPSPort_11182020-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46071_006_KQED_Oakland_TPSPort_11182020-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46071_006_KQED_Oakland_TPSPort_11182020-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46071_006_KQED_Oakland_TPSPort_11182020-qut-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jesus Perlera drives his truck at the Port of Oakland on Nov. 18, 2020.

DACA recipients must reapply for the protections every two years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Landing us on the status quo will be a good start,” said Dugan-Cuadra. “We only see it as a short-term action to provide immediate relief, but we will not accept anything other than a legislative path for permanency for both Dreamers and TPS.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Federal courts have delayed efforts by the Trump administration to rescind TPS for more than 400,000 people from El Salvador, Haiti, Honduras, Nepal, Nicaragua and Sudan. But this fall, a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals sided with Trump, ruling that the president could move forward with the terminations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Plaintiffs in that case, a group of TPS holders and their U.S. citizen children, plan to ask a larger panel of the 9th Circuit to review the decision. The earliest that immigration officials could rescind work permits for nationals of El Salvador would be November 2021. Immigrants from the other impacted countries could see their protections expire as soon as March, said ACLU attorney Ahilan Arulanantham, who represents plaintiffs in the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The courts have also intervened to keep DACA alive for nearly 650,000 recipients. But the Trump administration stopped accepting first-time applicants after it announced it was rescinding the program in 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"immigration\"]Earlier this year, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the Trump administration did not follow the law when it tried to end DACA. Since then, the federal government has refused to accept new applications, despite lower court rulings mandating that they do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Migration Policy Institutes estimates that, in addition to current DACA recipients, another 685,000 young people are eligible to apply to the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most DACA and TPS recipients work and pay an estimated $5.5 billion in taxes per year, according to New American Economy, a bipartisan research and advocacy organization. Many work in fields that have been deemed essential during the pandemic, including health care, education, elder care, construction and food production and distribution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, about 27,700 TPS holders and 56,900 DACA recipients hold such front-line jobs, according to the Center for American Progress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like truck driver Jesus Perlera, San Jose resident Karla Lopez is also an essential worker. DACA has allowed Lopez, 27, to work as a certified nursing assistant, and to enroll in a registered nursing program at a local community college.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The California Board of Registered Nursing requires students to have a Social Security number, something Lopez didn’t have before she applied for DACA in 2012, the year Obama created it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“DACA has helped me so much for all the jobs that I’ve had,” said Lopez, whose father brought her to the U.S. from Mexico when she was 10, and who is now raising two children of her own. “It has opened a lot of doors for me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lopez cares for elderly people at a nursing home. She says she kept working through the pandemic, even while pregnant, despite the risk of getting the virus and bringing it home to her 4-year-old son.\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003cbr>\n“It was really scary,” said Lopez, who is currently on maternity leave after giving birth to her second baby. “But you know what? It's my job.

Now I hope this new Biden administration fulfills what it has promised us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perlera is one of nearly a quarter of a million immigrants in California — including an estimated 85,000 essential workers — whose temporary permits to live and work in the U.S. could be protected under Biden. The president-elect is expected to use his executive power to reverse many of Trump’s attempts to crackdown on immigration, including his efforts to strip TPS from most recipients and to end Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, a program that benefits hundreds of thousands of young undocumented people known as Dreamers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Biden has also promised to pursue a broader immigration reform bill that grants a pathway to citizenship to all 11 million undocumented immigrants in the U.S. — including DACA and TPS holders — succeeding in that effort will be a much heavier lift.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For one thing, to pass legislation, Biden will need a majority of votes in the Senate, which he is not guaranteed to have. But the new president will also have to wrestle with more pressing priorities at the beginning of his administration, said Muzaffar Chishti, a senior fellow at the Migration Policy Institute in Washington, D.C.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The pandemic is going to dominate the oxygen for at least one year,” said Chishti. “The presidency will have very little time to do anything in a focused way on anything other than health and economic issues.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama also took office with strong mandates to create paths to citizenship for many of the nation’s undocumented immigrants, Chishti noted, but their first terms were consumed instead with crises: the 9/11 attacks for Bush and the Great Recession for Obama.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Biden is inheriting another piece of bad luck here. Just imagine, with a high unemployment rate, how do you argue for legalizing 11 million people?” he said. “It's a very hard sell, and therefore, I consider that kind of big immigration bill very difficult in the short run.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11848707\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11848707\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46071_006_KQED_Oakland_TPSPort_11182020-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46071_006_KQED_Oakland_TPSPort_11182020-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46071_006_KQED_Oakland_TPSPort_11182020-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46071_006_KQED_Oakland_TPSPort_11182020-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46071_006_KQED_Oakland_TPSPort_11182020-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46071_006_KQED_Oakland_TPSPort_11182020-qut-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jesus Perlera drives his truck at the Port of Oakland on Nov. 18, 2020.

But this fall, a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals sided with Trump, ruling that the president could move forward with the terminations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Plaintiffs in that case, a group of TPS holders and their U.S. citizen children, plan to ask a larger panel of the 9th Circuit to review the decision. The earliest that immigration officials could rescind work permits for nationals of El Salvador would be November 2021. Immigrants from the other impacted countries could see their protections expire as soon as March, said ACLU attorney Ahilan Arulanantham, who represents plaintiffs in the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The courts have also intervened to keep DACA alive for nearly 650,000 recipients.

Last month, the Supreme Court \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11825353/supreme-court-daca-ruling-gives-way-to-organizing-for-path-to-citizenship\">blocked the administration's effort\u003c/a> to end the program known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. Then two weeks ago, a court in Maryland told the administration to start accepting new DACA applicants. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the administration is refusing to do that, saying it will reject new applicants while launching a \"comprehensive review\" of DACA and whether to go forward with a new plan to end the program. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Vanessa Esparza-Lopez, National Immigrant Justice Center\"]'It is unconscionable for the Trump administration to circumvent the rulings of a federal court in order to once again thrust into uncertainty the families and communities who rely on DACA.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I have concluded that the DACA policy, at a minimum, presents serious policy concerns that may warrant its full rescission,\" said Acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf in a memo explaining the administration's decision. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to that memo, the administration will continue to renew DACA protections for the roughly 640,000 immigrants who already have them — but only for one year, not for two years, as was previously the policy. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigrant advocates assailed the administration's move, saying it hurts DACA recipients and their families.

Once they are rejected, the plaintiffs are likely to go back to court to argue that the Trump administration is defying the Supreme Court's ruling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Antonio Alarcon, a DACA recipient and activist with Make The Road New York, called today's move by the administration \"an attack on me and my family.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Our communities are paying close attention to this administration's attacks.
