Immigration policy becomes more and more important today because the demographics of this country are facing a drastic shift. The impact of this impending demographic fluctuation has already showed some influence on the 2012 Presidential election. While throughout his first term President Obama failed to get the Dream Act passed in Congress, President Obama exercised his executive privilege to stop deporting some undocumented youths who have no criminal record and to grant them temporary work permits. This new policy is called Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, which is the first substantial action with respect to undocumented youth or students since the 1982 ruling of Plyler v. Doe. Thirty years ago in that 5 to 4 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court held that students should not be denied access to K-12 education regardless of their immigration status. This paper will address the issues, research related cases, and examine possible approaches to resolve the dilemma under the Constitution of this nation and the Plyler students. As Plyler turns 30, its students continue to be educated, to age, and possibly be deported along with their educational assets. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
