 If you migrated to the US when you were a child, your parents or guardian might have worked hard to ensure that you have the opportunity to have a better life in the country. On December 22, 2020, a coalition that is made up of nine states and led by Texas had urged a federal judge to invalidate the program that grants immigrants brought to the US as children the ability to work and live in the country.
