Michelle Quist: Dreamers, sex and the Supreme Court

October marked the beginning of the 2019 term for the United States Supreme Court, and its new term is already in high gear. There are a few notable cases Utahns should keep an eye on.

The court heard arguments on Tuesday in these consolidated cases, which appealed the Trump administration’s decision to revoke the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, program. The program defers deportation of persons who were brought to the United States as children, who also meet other requirements.

President Obama initiated the DACA program after Congress failed to agree on the DREAM Act.
