What About the 172,000 DACA Dropouts? A Question Not Raised
By David North on November 25, 2019
We keep hearing about the Supreme Court, the Trump administration, and the DACA population of relatively young illegal aliens now temporarily in legal status as if this group were a single grouping.
That is not the case.
The Department of Homeland Security, over the last seven years, has granted DACA (Delayed Action for Childhood Arrivals) status to some 825,000 aliens, but more than 172,000 of them, or about 21 percent, have dropped out of the program, leaving about 653,000.
And the recent drop-out rate of about 3,000 a month may increase as the DHS fee for the two-year-renewals is slated to increase from $495 to $765 in the near future.
