Temporary Relief

Executive action is the newest thing that the President has done to help people that are in the United States illegally who have been here since January 1, 2010, and happen to have children here, even one child that is either a U.S. citizen or a permanent resident. It allows them to get work authorization. It allows them to not be deported or be in process of being deported. It allows them to get driver’s licenses and social security number, so we can actually document what they do and how come they drive.So if an accident was to happen, you would know who the driver is and all that. It’s a welcome thing.

DACA vs. DAPA

Initially it was for only the children and we call that one DACA. Now it’s moved to DAPA, so we now have the children and their parents being able to get some relief from deportation. Again, this is not amnesty. It’s just a temporary relief for about three years to allow these people that have been stuck here that are hiding to actually come out and get the relief that the United States offers.
