State by State DACA Fact Sheets
Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) is a program enacted by President Obama to shield from detention and deportation undocumented immigrants who were brought to the United States as children. Since it's inception, DACA has helped hundreds of thousands of undocumented youth apply for driver's licenses, get a social security number, attend university, and live their lives out of the shadows.
But now, the Trump Administration is threatening to repeal DACA, violating a promise that Donald Trump made on the campaign trail. Below are fact sheets for each of the 50 states showing the good that DACA has brought each state and the significant cost of ending the program.
