(Washington, D.C., September 6, 2017) Roy Speckhardt, executive director of the American Humanist Association, denounces President Trump’s decision to repeal DACA. “President Trump’s stunning move to end DACA jeopardizes the potentials of hundreds of thousands of people. This is another resolution among a string of decisions this administration has made that either fail to take into account the negative consequences on real human beings, or do so regardless of those consequences. One doesn’t even need to know the best long-term solutions to the challenges of undocumented immigration to recognize the inhumanity of this move.”
