"IBM applauds today’s U.S. Supreme Court decision permitting DACA recipients to continue living and working in the United States," said Senior VP & Chief Human Resources Officer Diane Gherson.

The program, which was instituted under President Barack Obama in 2012, allows undocumented immigrants who were brought to the U.S. as children to stay in the country without the fear of deportation as long as they don't have any felonies or significant misdemeanors. Nearly 650,000 undocumented young people depend on the program, which requires they get a work permit renewed every two years.
As many advocates point out, these young people had no say in the decision to come to the country when they did. They pay taxes. They contribute to the U.S. economy. Some have children who are U.S. citizens. Many were brought into the U.S. at such a young age they have no memories of the country they were born in.
This decision comes just days after the U.S. Supreme Court delivered good newsfor the LGBTQ community, ruling that existing laws protect them from discrimination.
