The US Supreme Court had left the door open for Trump to aim to rescind the program affecting 650,000 immigrants.
US President Donald Trump on Friday said his administration will make a filing on "Dreamer" immigrants who arrived within us irregularly but entered as children, without providing details, to deal with the Supreme Court's ruling he broke federal procedure law in ending a program shielding them from deportation.
"The Supreme Court asked us to resubmit on DACA, nothing was lost or won. They 'punted', very similar to during a football (where hopefully they might represent our great American Flag). we'll be submitting enhanced papers shortly to properly fulfill the Supreme Court's ruling & request of yesterday," Trump wrote on Twitter, about the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy
Trump didn't explain what he meant by "enhanced papers". the very best court within the country left the door open for Trump to aim again to rescind the program, ruling only that the administration had not met a procedural requirement and its actions were "arbitrary and capricious" under a federal law called the executive Procedure Act.
Ken Cuccinelli, the Department of Homeland Security acting deputy secretary, on Friday said the department would "move as quickly as possible" to present Trump with various executive options he could take.
"That still leaves open the acceptable solution, which the Supreme Court mentioned, which is that Congress intensify to the plate," he told Fox News in an interview shortly before Trump's tweet.
The Supreme Court on Thursday blocked his bid to finish DACA with a 5-4 ruling.
The administration's actions, the justices ruled, were "arbitrary and capricious" under a federal law called the executive Procedure Act.
The ruling means the roughly 649,000 immigrants, mostly young Hispanic adults born in Mexico and other Latin American countries, currently enrolled within the program will remain shielded from deportation and eligible to get renewable two-year work permits.
