    Reading Time:about 4 minutes

    The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), specifically the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), announced that it is extending the collection of information for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program without any changes. This notice, published in the Federal Register, allows an additional 30 days for the public to comment on this extension. The document outlines that comments can focus on the necessity and efficiency of the data collection and suggests that individuals limit the personal information they share in their submissions, as these will be made public. Additionally, it provides estimates of the number of respondents and the public's time and cost burden associated with this information collection.

    Simple Explanation

    The government wants to keep collecting information from people who are part of a special program that helps kids who came to the country without papers, and they are giving people more time to say what they think about it. They are doing this because they want to make sure they're asking good questions and not making it too hard for people to answer.

  • 2021-01769 — Preserving and Fortifying Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA)
    Type:Presidential Document
    Citation:86 FR 7053
    Reading Time:about a minute or two

    The memorandum titled "Preserving and Fortifying Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA)" outlines a directive by the President to maintain and strengthen the DACA program. Established during the Obama-Biden Administration, DACA provides temporary relief from deportation for certain undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children, allowing them to work and contribute to the economy. The memorandum instructs the Secretary of Homeland Security, in consultation with the Attorney General, to take appropriate actions to uphold the program, ensuring that it aligns with existing laws. It also specifies that the memorandum does not create any legal rights for individuals against the United States or its agencies.

    Simple Explanation

    The President wrote a note asking to keep helping kids who came to the U.S. without papers by letting them stay and work, and wants officials to figure out how to make this help even better, but it's not clear exactly how they will do it or when.
