California public higher education leaders unite to support DACA
A federal appeals court in Texas ruled Wednesday (Oct. 5) that DACA is unlawful, but the ruling keeps the program in place for now and allows recipients to renew their status while a lower court reviews changes made by the Biden administration that could fortify the program.
In a joint statement, the leaders of the University of California, California State University and California Community College systems responded to the ruling with a call for a permanent path to citizenship for DACA recipients. They also urged current DACA recipients to renew their status through free legal services available at their respective campuses.
