Latest action on H.R. 6922: Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects people who already have DACA and people applying for DACA for the first time. It also affects employers who hire DACA recipients, especially in states where court rulings have made work permit rules unclear. State and local economies could also feel the effect if more DACA recipients can keep working legally.

Why this matters: This matters because the ability to work legally can decide whether a DACA recipient can keep a job, support a family, or use their training. Right now, court fights have created uncertainty in some places. This bill would replace that patchwork with one federal rule for DACA work permits. It could help workers and employers plan ahead, but it would not give DACA recipients permanent legal status or solve broader immigration problems.

Key provisions in H.R. 6922

• This bill adds a new rule to Section 274A of the Immigration and Nationality Act. That new rule is about work permits for DACA recipients.
• The Secretary of Homeland Security would have to approve work permits for anyone granted deferred action under DACA or a later similar policy. The bill says this applies even if other laws or court orders point the other way.
• First-time DACA applicants who meet all current DACA rules would get work authorization when they get deferred action. They would not have to wait for a separate step later.
• People in states or court areas that previously blocked DACA work permits would still be covered. The bill makes that point explicit.
• The bill uses the original June 15, 2012 Department of Homeland Security memo to define DACA. That memo created the program.
