“Terminate” can mean a few possibilities. I will answer this question with 3 variations of what terminating DACA could look like.
First, terminate can mean that all DACA enrollments and renewals will be denied. If the termination allows the existing EAD (Employment authorization Documents) to expire naturally, DACA will phase out in two years time. The administration can easily facilitate this termination because it would be rejecting payment and cancelling current renewals.
Second, terminate can mean that all DACA applications will be denied, and all existing EAD (Employment authorization Documents) are immediately voided, cancelled, terminated. This could happen in the course of one day. The administration can easily facilitate this termination because it would be rejecting payment and cancelling current renewals.
Third, terminate can mean all DACA applications are denied, existing EAD (Employment authorization Documents) are voided, and the DACA Database can be used to facilitate a mass deportation. Please note that Trump’s stance on DACA is synonymous with Illegal Immigration.
From a legal perspective, DACA never made its recipient’s “legal,” it only allowed them to work legally and have “temporary relief” from deportation. The administration can start this process very easily; however, deportation is costly and would require more manpower and funding. The administration would have to rely on the “spending power” of congress to implement a mass deportation. However, deportation may still occur at normal rates. So, believing Congress will stop everything is probably a long-shot.
