Questionable DACA Studies Cited in Senate Hearing
By Preston Huennekens on October 5, 2017
On Tuesday the Senate Judiciary Committee held a hearing entitled "Oversight of the Administration's Decision to End Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals." As the title suggests, the hearing focused on the effects of President Trump's September 5 decision to roll back the DACA program.
The committee convened two panels. The first consisted of administration officials from the Justice Department, US Citizenship and Immigration Services, and the Department of Homeland Security. The second panel included non-government witnesses, including the Center's Director of Policy Studies, Jessica Vaughan. Her testimony to the committee addressed a wide range of concerns spanning the entirety of the DACA program, from the initial announcement in 2012 to today.
