The Supreme Court, with a 5-4 conservative majority, will review whether the Trump administration\u2019s September 2017 decision to rescind DACA is reviewable by the court and if so, whether the administration\u2019s rationale to end DACA violated the Administrative Procedure Act. Lower court rulings in California, New York, and the District of Columbia claim that the Trump administration\u2019s justification for ending DACA was \u201carbitrary and capricious.\u201d Tuesday\u2019s hearings place DACA beneficiaries in jeopardy.  We revisit the importance of DACA in the lives of beneficiaries and the country as a whole in anticipation of the impending Supreme Court hearings with this earlier piece by Karina Santellano and Jody Agius Vallejo.\n\n\n<\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    \n          <strong class=\"author-field\"><span >By<\/span>Karina Santellano, Graduate Student, USC Sociology and Prof. Jody Agius Vallejo, USC

deportation and work permits to undocumented young people brought to the U.S. as children. However, DACA\u2019s future is in peril. Ten state attorneys general provided an ultimatum to Trump: terminate the program by September 5, 2017 or they will challenge the policy in an unfriendly court. As the country awaits Trump\u2019s decision, it is important to understand what the dissolution of the program would mean for DACA beneficiaries (sometimes referred to as \u201cDACAmented\u201d individuals) who have integrated into our universities, workplaces, communities, and America more broadly. Here are three ways in which DACA has improved the lives of DACAmented people and our society.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong><strong>DACA allows young people to come out of the shadows and integrate into the labor market.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The 2017 National DACA Study, conducted by Tom Wong, UC San Diego professor of political science, along with <a title=\"https:\/\/unitedwedream.org\/\" href=\"https:\/\/unitedwedream.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">United We Dream<\/a>, the <a title=\"https:\/\/www.nilc.org\/\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nilc.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">National Immigration Law Center<\/a>, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.americanprogress.org\/issues\/immigration\/view\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Center for American Progress<\/a>\u00a0reports that 54% of respondents secured their first job after obtaining work authorization via DACA, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.americanprogress.org\/issues\/immigration\/news\/2017\/08\/28\/437956\/daca-recipients-economic-educational-gains-continue-grow\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">91%<\/a> of respondents are currently employed.

Among those surveyed for the 2017 National DACA Study, two-thirds said that they pursued educational opportunities that they could not before they were DACAmented, and 72% of respondents were pursuing a bachelor\u2019s degree or higher. DACA beneficiaries are earning degrees in various fields including STEM programs like engineering, mathematics, and health <a title=\"https:\/\/www.americanprogress.org\/issues\/immigration\/news\/2017\/08\/28\/437956\/daca-recipients-economic-educational-gains-continue-grow\/\" href=\"https:\/\/www.americanprogress.org\/issues\/immigration\/news\/2017\/08\/28\/437956\/daca-recipients-economic-educational-gains-continue-grow\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sciences<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>\u00a0<strong>DACA beneficiaries make significant economic contributions to local, regional, and national economies.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Work authorization and increased educational attainment has helped DACAmented youth land jobs with higher pay, allowing people to take better care of their families and make larger economic contributions to society. According to the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy (ITEP), DACA-eligible youth contribute an estimated $2 billion a year in state and local taxes that help to improve schools, infrastructure, and that pay for social services.\u00a0 The Center for American Progress estimates that eliminating DACA would result in a loss of approximately <a href=\"https:\/\/www.americanprogress.org\/issues\/immigration\/news\/2017\/07\/21\/436419\/new-threat-daca-cost-states-billions-dollars\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">$460.3 billion<\/a> to the U.S. GDP over the next 10 years. The 10 states urging Trump to end DACA would lose more than $8 billion annually.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-14368 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/eri\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2019\/11\/KS_JV_blog_figure_1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"397\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/eri\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2019\/11\/KS_JV_blog_figure_1.png 1024w, https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/eri\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2019\/11\/KS_JV_blog_figure_1-300x116.png 300w, https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/eri\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2019\/11\/KS_JV_blog_figure_1-768x298.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>Source: Institute of Taxation and Economic Policy 2017<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org\/sites\/default\/files\/research\/daca_at_year_three.pdf\">Research<\/a> demonstrates that DACA beneficiaries are rooted to social institutions like schools, labor markets, and communities throughout the Nation. The termination of the program will have devastating consequences on the wellbeing of DACAmented people and their families, and the negative social and economic effects will be felt at all levels of society\u2014from treasuries, to small-town businesses, to civil society, to higher education. The Trump administration must remember what is at stake when evaluating DACA\u2019s future and also the lessons that DACA provides.<\/p>\n<p>The program is an undeniable success and DACA concretely demonstrates how authorization to live, work, and pursue educational dreams simultaneously helps immigrants integrate and strengthens society. Instead of rescinding DACA, or simply leaving it in place, policy makers could help amplify these positive effects by acting swiftly to provide a permanent pathway to citizenship for undocumented people\u2014<a href=\"https:\/\/www.prri.org\/research\/americans-views-discrimination-immigrants-blacks-lgbt-sex-marriage-immigration-reform\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a solution supported by the majority of Americans.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n  \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n<div\n  class=\"cc--component-container cc--rich-text \"\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  >\n  <div class=\"c--component c--rich-text\"\n    \n      >\n\n    \n      \n<div class=\"f--field f--wysiwyg\">\n\n    \n  <hr \/>\n<p><strong>About the authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Karina Santellano is a graduate student in Sociology at USC.
