Trump might allow current ‘Dreamers’ to stay in immigration program

President Trump is mulling a split decision on the “Dreamers.”

White House sources say the president is moving toward ending new work permits under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, or DACA, without changing the status of the roughly 800,000 already enrolled in the program.

A decision on the future of the “Dreamers” is expected Tuesday.

Trump has spent the last week trying to decide what to do with the program started by former President Barack Obama in 2012, which allows young immigrants brought to the country as children to work in the US legally, while shielding them from deportation.
