    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.
