Heirs Of An Administration: Unlawful Executive Actions, Jerome Perez
Heirs Of An Administration: Unlawful Executive Actions, Jerome Perez
Catholic University Law Review
The Supreme Court of the United States in DHS v. Regents on June 18, 2020, decided to stall the Trump administration from rescinding the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) policy that the Obama administration created contrary to the Administrative Procedures Act (APA)––even though in 2016 the Supreme Court affirmed a preliminary injunction on the Deferred Action for Parents of Americans (DAPA) policy, which mirrors DACA.
