On Wednesday, the federal court ruled in our DACA lawsuit and unfortunately declined to provide relief to our plaintiffs — nearly 100,000 class members, including first-time DACA applicants whose applications are in limbo and DACA recipients who are seeking to renew their DACA after it lapsed for a year or more.
The hard truth is that the relief we sought from the court could be delivered by the Biden administration. They can direct the Department of Homeland Security to act on DACA applications that are currently stalled — specifically, to resume processing first-time applications up to the point of decision, and to make final decisions on renewal requests for DACA recipients whose previous DACA lapsed a year or more ago.
We are calling on President Biden to use every tool at his disposal to provide the certainty and security that our brave plaintiffs need. Add your name to the petition we will deliver to the White House. >>>
