Supreme Court will hear DACA/ DAPA Appeal
The Supreme Court will hear the Obama administration's appeal of the 5th Circuit Court's decision to uphold the nationwide injunction of the expansion of Deferred Action for Children (DACA) and implementation of Deferred Action for Parents of Americans (DAPA) set by federal Judge Andrew Hanen in Texas.
In addition to the procedural issues of comment and potential harm discussed in the lower courts, the Supreme Court asked both, "the federal government and the states suing it to address whether the executive actions on immigration violate the Constitution's take care clause -- an issue that was not definitively decided by lower courts that have ruled on the case."
