Protesters Rally for DACA With Dance Routine Outside White House

Protesters gathered outside the White House as the repeal of the Obama-era DACA program was announced on Tuesday, September 5.

The Trump administration instructed authorities to stop processing new applications under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy that covers 800,000 protected immigrants brought to the US as children from deportation as of Tuesday. However, permit renewals will continue for another six months, potentially giving Congress time to react to the move.

Tuesday’s announcement sparked several protests, including outside the White House and in New York. New York City police officers made multiple arrests at a sit-in blocking the street outside Trump Tower. Credit: Instagram/artsmitch via Storyful
