This is an interview with local director of Puente de la Costa Sur, Rita Mancera and her offerings regards the 2020 Supreme Court decision. The Court delivered its opinion on June 18, 2020. In the 5–4 decision, the Court's majority determined that the decision to rescind the DACA program was "arbitrary and capricious," under the APA, and thus reversed the order. The purpose of DACA is to protect eligible immigrant youth who came to the United States when they were children from deportation. DACA gives young undocumented immigrants: 1) protection from deportation; and 2) a work permit.
