The Republican-approved Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Appropriations bill for Fiscal Year 2019 includes a quasi-amnesty for the nearly one million illegal aliens who are currently enrolled in the President Obama-created Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
Quasi-amnesties for DACA illegal aliens and foreign nationals who are in the United States on Temporary Protected Status (TPS) was slipped into the appropriations bill by Rep. Pete Aguilar (D-CA) and approved by Rep. Kevin Yoder (R-KS).
Essentially, the amendments to the funding bill prohibit DHS from using any funds or resources from detaining any DACA illegal aliens or foreign nationals who have TPS.
