Samuel Alfaro, pauses between responses during an interview at his home in Houston, Texas, Friday, July 23, 2021. Alfaro said his appointment to help obtain deferred action for childhood arrival or DACA immigration status was canceled due to a recent federal court ruling against the program. It said his appointment with U.S.

In a statement, Citizenship and Immigration Services said it “will comply with the court order, continue to implement the components of DACA that remain in place.” U.S. District Judge Andrew Hanen in Houston agreed, saying in his ruling that “Congress’s clear articulation of laws for removal, lawful presence and work authorization illustrates a manifest intent to reserve for itself the authority to determine the framework of the nation’s immigration system.”

She said the agency received 50,000 applications in the first three months of the year but made decisions on fewer than 1,000.
