The conservative case for DACA: The intriguing legal theory you won’t hear on Fox News

Faculty_MichaelKagan_web

Michael Kagan in Salon poses a challenges to liberals defending the President’s expanded deferred action program:

“Herein lies an opportunity to defend DACA and DAPA by taking a page from the conservative playbook. President Obama’s immigration actions should be understood as sensible measures to move power out of the hands of unaccountable civil servants, and return it to democratically elected officials. They are justifiable efforts to prevent a public sector union from hijacking public policy.”
