BREAKING! A Judge In Texas just blocked the #DACA program and now no new applications will be accepted.

As Republicans continue their cruel attacks on immigrants, there is now added urgency for Democrats to provide a path to citizenship for immigrants! Let’s get it done!

Just in: A federal judge in Texas has blocked the DACA program going forward — it won't affect current recipients for now (judge is putting that issue on hold, pending expected appeals), but it blocks DHS from approving new applications https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/21010983/7-16-21-texas-v-us-opinion.pdf…

I wonder how they keep drawing him for such cases.

Has he been overturned previously?
