There's uncertainty yet again for Dreamers in Colorado and nationwide. On Wednesday, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ruled Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) is unlawful, upholding the 2021 decision of a lower court.
"It's been kind of difficult just because we have been in this limbo state for such a long time, since 2012," MSU Denver senior Leslie Bernal said
That means current DACA recipients can renew their status, but new applicants still aren't being accepted."It has really affected me just because I don't know what I'm gonna do when I graduate," Bernal said. "I think whether the district judge finds that it's lawful or unlawful, I think we'll likely see it back in front of the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals," Athanasiou said.
