Restore the Republic
If you are illegally here no matter if your visa is out of status or came here illegally you have no right to be here.
Every nation has immigration laws including America.
I don't think it's a matter of "rights". There are no "Rights", there are only priviliges the rest of us let you have. Any fool who thinks he has "rights" needs to look up Japanese Americans, 1942.
That said, as a practical matter, we have 11 million undocumented immigrants here. some have been here since they were children and know no other country.
And sadly, as much as the right whines about it, it's other rich Republicans who keep hiring them.
To provide undocumented immigrants (those who came here illegally) protection from Federal ICE agents, makes those supporters who prohibit enforcement “enablers” of the problem. States are either submitting under Federal Law or breaking the law, as individual states don’t have any legal footing to which to stand when it conflicts with those laws passed by Congress AND signed by the President. Both conditions in Washington, must be met to be deemed Constitutional.
While states may be enablers of people being able to stay in a state, the federal government does not have unlimited powers regarding foreigners. The feds have a limited role, constitutionally speaking.
According to current news:
"The Supreme Court said on Monday that it will stay out of the dispute concerning the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program for now, meaning participants will still be able to renew their status."

The United States Supreme Court could not be more clear in telegraphing their moves. If / when the right forces the hand of our nation's highest Court, it's not going to go the way the anti-immigrant lobby thinks.
The Supreme Court is staying out because at that time legislation in Congress was trying to tackle the issue Constitutionally.
Now with regard to certain judge believing that a president can enact policy to change immigration enforcement measures contrary to legislation, but then another president with those same executive powers can’t rescind that measure? There is no established precedent to back his decision, nor is there any Constitutional authority under Article II Section 2 granting a president the ability to change enforcement of a prior existing law. The President can not circumvent Congress, the Constitution gives clear separation between the Executive and the Legislative regarding their roles in the establishment of law.
