Washington, D.C. - On Monday, U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions confirmed Trump's decision to recind Obama's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) affecting 800K adult illegal aliens and gave Congress 6 months to legislate a resolution. Sessions says DACA will "Wind Down" and as the two year program limit expires for registered DACA adults, no renewals will be allowed. The lack of DACA protections, those affected will most likely be targeted for deportation by ICE.
Trump's decision was based on his campaign pledge to end Obama's DACA and "for the safety and security of Americans," according to Sessions.
Sessions says, DACA workers have taken jobs from Americans. The end of DACA will force 800K illegal aliens to lose their jobs creating a loss of $14B economic revenue for the U.S. and it will cost an additional $8B to deport DACA adults affecting the economy and result in the separation of families as well.
DACA recipients are currently attending colleges and working in all job sectors in the U.S. industry, corporate and have no criminal records.
800K DACA registered recipients also support the U.S. government as well, each pays $500 to renew legal protection status every two year, which would total $400M every two years.
Ending DACA would cost a loss in Social Security revenue of about $19.9B to the government in the next ten years, according to the Immigrant Legal Resource Center. DACA recipients don't collect Social Security benefits.
