"President Barack Obama’s signature immigration action could be quickly overturned when President-elect Donald Trump (http://abcnews.go.com/topics/news/donald-trump.htm) takes office, leaving its recipients facing uncertainty about their futures."
"Obama instituted the Deferred Action (http://abcnews.go.com/topics/news/immigration/deferred-action-immigration.htm) for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) policy to allow undocumented immigrants (http://abcnews.go.com/topics/news/immigration/pathway-to-citizenship.htm) who arrived in the U.S. as children to come out of the shadows and pay a fee to receive a temporary work authorization and protection from deportation."
"Those who qualified for DACA had to prove they were under the age of 31 as of June 15, 2012, came to the United States before age 16, lived here for at least five years continuously, attend or graduated from high school or college and have no criminal convictions."

Thanks to ABC News for this report.
Imho, DACA recipients have been vetted and have been found to qualify. They live productive lives contributing much to America and deserve a path to citizenship. These folks should not have to fear the future when they are already contributing many positive things to it in this country including going to high school and college. But with Trump coming in to office things could unfortunately change for the worse for DACA recipients and that is a real shame.
