Obama era DACA program ending divides Kansas leaders
U S Attorney General Jeff Sessions said the Trump administration would end DACA and give Congress six months to act. Kansas politicians including Lynn Jenkins Kris Kobach and Kevin Yoder split on the approach with some urging a legislative fix while others oppose amnesty. Democrats at the Statehouse condemned the decision noting DACA recipients contribute to the economy and tax revenue. Public and faith leaders criticized the move as harmful and unkind.
