Today's guest hosts are Edwith Theogene and Emily Leach, Organizing Director and Senior Press Associate for Generation Progress.

During today's episode, they discuss the recent ruling from the Supreme Court on the Trump administration’s decision to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program (commonly known as DACA) back in 2017. On June 18th, the Supreme Court ruled in a 5-4 majority that the decision from the Trump administration was unlawful, which brought temporary relief and peace of mind to the 650,000 Dreamers who have been anxiously awaiting this decision for years. This win is a huge testament to the tireless work of Dreamers and young immigrant activists who have fought for this outcome.

But it is also a reminder of how far we still have to go to prevent people in this country from living with the constant threat of deportation. As we speak, the Trump administration is already putting plans in place to end the program again, and depending on the reasoning they use this time, they may ultimately be successful.

To talk with our guest hosts about this monumental decision, and what must be done right now to protect Dreamers and all undocumented people living in the United States, are Claudia Flores, the immigration campaign manager on the Center for American Progress’s Immigration team, and Juliana Macedo do Nascimento, the state and local policy manager at United We Dream.
