Episode #2003 - DACA in Michiana

In September 2017, Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced the end of DACA (Delayed Action for Childhood Arrivals). The White House made this move in an attempt to force Congress to act on comprehensive immigration reform.

In the meantime, DACA recipients, their families, and their communities are left with a feeling of uncertainty that’s all too familiar.

Our guests share the latest on DACA, bust myths about the program, and talk about why the Trump administration’s move can be a good thing in the long run.
