Episode description

On Tuesday morning, Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced the end of DACA, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. No new DACA applications will be accepted, current DACA holders have one month to renew (under certain circumstances), and over the next 6 months, DACA will start to be phased out.

Hosts Maria Hinojosa and Julio Ricardo Varela bring on comedian and actress Cristela Alonzo to process this news, and to think about how to possibly start moving forward.
