I just read about 15 statements from Democrats who are members of Congress. Each of those statements contain the line that DACA members "cannot be used as political pawns." It's really disgusting.
Remember how we got here. In 2009-2010, the Democrats had total control of Congress and teh White House. Although they talked about doing something about illegal immigrants, they took no action. They did NOTHING.
Next, President Obama told us repeatedly that he didn't have the power to enact by himself a program like DACA. Then, despite Obama's lack of power, he went ahead and did it anyway.
When Trump got elected, he wanted to reform the immigration laws, but the Democrats wouldn't seriously discuss doing anything at all on that subject. As a result, Trump rescinded Obama's DACA program, but he put a six month time delay in place so that Congress would have the time it needed to reform the immigration laws. Congress, however, did nothing because the Democrats blocked any attempt at action. The Dems wanted to keep the DACA people as political pawns rather than to solve their problems.
Now that SCOTUS is hearing the case regarding that rescission of DACA, the Democrats are all screaming about using the DACA people as political pawns. They are the ones who have used the DACA people as pawns for years. This whole bit of nonsense is truly disgusting.
