Poll Backing off on a campaign promise, President Trump keeps DACA in place, for now. Are you glad that it is still in place? (21 votes)

In a reversal from one of his promises to end what he said was an illegal overreach of President Obama's authority, President Trump is keeping the DACA program in place for now.
The program allows illegal aliens that were bought here as children to stay in place, shielding them from deportation and allowing them to seek employment.
Repealing the program was one of the biggest fears people that were undocumented had since Trump won the election. While the program will stay in place for now, immigration forces have more authority to deport people that broke the law to include people under DACA.
Thoughts? Do you think that it is a good thing he is keeping the program, or do you think that it should have gone away? Keep in mind that DACA does not make you legal, it just makes you much less likely to be deported.
