The ruling is a setback for the program and its 579,000 enrollees, but the Department of Homeland Security can continue to renew the status of those already enrolled. The decision is expected to be appealed.
A federal judge in Texas has ruled that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program is illegal, but has allowed it to remain intact for now.

Efforts to achieve a bipartisan compromise on the issue have been challenging.
