Position Title
- Director
Trump might be a businessman, but ending DACA and sending it to Congress for resolution made no business sense. That he did it anyway, over compelling evidence that keeping the program in place would be good for the nation’s economy, underscores Trump’s racism, his aversion to facts and his obsession with erasing the legacy of his predecessor.
Peri comments “These workers have high levels of human capital, they speak English, and their wages and productivity increased as a consequence of DACA.”
