Biden blasts ‘disappointing’ DACA ruling, urges Congress to protect undocumented

A federal judge’s invalidation of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program is “deeply disappointing,” President Biden said Saturday — calling on Senate Democrats to use legislative sleight-of-hand to protect undocumented people who were brought to the U.S. as children.

“This decision … relegates hundreds of thousands of young immigrants to an uncertain future,” Biden said in a White House-issued statement. “The Department of Justice intends to appeal this decision,” he added.
