The U.S. Supreme Court has rejected President Donald Trump's effort to end the DACA program. The justices rejected administration arguments that the eight-year-old Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program is illegal and that courts have no role to play in reviewing the decision to end DACA. The Obama-era program offers legal protections to young immigrants brought to the United States illegally as children. The decision was 5 to 4 with Chief Justice John Roberts joining the more liberal members of the court. While this decision focuses powers of the executive office, Ohio Senator Rob Portman thinks the future of the DACA program needs to be run through Congress.
