Supreme Court leans toward Trump plan to end DACA program for nearly 700K undocumented immigrants

WASHINGTON – The Supreme Court on Tuesday appeared likely to side with the Trump administration in its effort to end a program that lets nearly 700,000 young, undocumented immigrants live and work in the USA without fear of deportation.

During an extended, 80-minute oral argument inside a packed courtroom that included some of the threatened immigrants, several conservative justices noted the Department of Homeland Security laid out several reasons for its decision to rescind the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, program.
