A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to keep deportation protection for 800,000 young undocumented immigrants known as "dreamers."
In a sharp rebuke to President Trump's efforts to end the program known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, District Judge John Bates also ordered the Department of Homeland Security to accept new applicants to the program for the first time since it became law in 2017.
The judge said Trump administration efforts to scrap DACA were illegal.
He called it "arbitrary and capricious because the department failed to adequately explain its conclusion that the program is unlawful."
There has been no response so far from the administration.
一位美国联邦法官裁令川普行政当局继续执行对大约80万非法移民暂缓递解的保护。这些幼年被带到美国的非法移民被称为“追梦者”。
美国联邦地区法官贝茨制止了川普总统结束“幼年来美暂缓递解”计划的努力,并裁令国土安全部自从这项计划2017年成为法律以来第一次开始接受新的申请。
贝茨法官说,川普行政当局废除“幼年来美暂缓递解”的计划不合法。
他说,这样做完全是武断的随意为之,因为国土安全部称这项计划非法,却又未能充分解释。
川普政府还没有对这项裁决做出任何回应。
