Besides deferring deportation, DACA provides the holders or “Dreamers” to work and study the United States legally. Those who are eligible for DACA, are not able to take any federal funds, in contrast, they are obligated to pay taxes and provide the United States with their services through profit.

DACA also known as Deferred Actions for Childhood Arrivals is an American immigration policy that was established by the Obama administration in June of 2012.

Some might say DACA helps keep our population regulated, stable, and safe. By letting people have the opportunity to work and give back to the states, the immigrants can have a 2 year period to get a stable job and gather a life.

DACA stand for Consideration of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, is an immigration policy made by President Obama in 2012.
