The US Supreme Court rejects a request from the Trump admin. to fast track its consideration of the future of DACA
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Monday rejected a request from the Trump administration to speed up its consideration of the future of DACA, the federal program that has allowed 700,000 young people — known as Dreamers — to avoid deportation.
The Trump administration, considering the program to be illegal, has tried for almost two years to shut it down, but lower courts have blocked that effort. The administration's appeals of those rulings have been pending since last November, but the Supreme Court has so far taken no action on them. But in a brief one-sentence order, the court denied the request Monday. As is its normal practice, it gave no reason.
