DACA recipients often called DREAMers are facing a new nightmare. According to the Trump administration, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers may use the information these people gave the government as a means of gaining temporary protection to, instead, find and deport them.
In deportation proceedings, the government must prove that the person they want deported is in the U.S. illegally. That can sometimes be tough. DACA recipients nearly 800,000 of them gave the Department of Homeland Security information proving they are undocumented so they could get relief from the threat of deportation. They also gave the government information about where they live, work, and go to school. As soon as Donald Trump was elected, immigrants rights activists started asking what his administration would do with that information.
In a memo, the Department of Homeland Security answered this question. And its statement full of wordy legalese made clear that Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers will be able to use DACA recipients personal information to deport them.
Information provided to USCIS in DACA requests will not be proactively provided to ICE and CBP for the purpose of immigration enforcement proceedings, unless the requestor meets the criteria for the issuance of a Notice To Appear or a referral to ICE under the criteria set forth in USCIS Notice to Appear guidance, said the statement.
In other words, USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services, the agency which handles DACA) wont proactively give immigration enforcement officers a list with the names and addresses of all DACA recipients. But if ICE officers ask for it, the agency will provide it.

So much for getting those 'bad hombres', instead of MS-13 he is going to have ICE go to schools and rip kids away from the only life they know. He is such a sick bastard. So much winning.
