deferred

The state plans to return some funding deferred last year, but the overall reduction will amount to 5.6%, or more than $270 million.

People who came to the U.S. as children and now have temporary status under Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, the Obama-era program that protects them from deportation and allows them to work legally, are also concerned about their futures under a second Trump term.

Meanwhile, Congress and the courts consistently deferred to the will of the president when it came to actions taken in the name of that war on terror.

The governor’s proclamation for the largely symbolic special session says his administration anticipates that Trump could seek to limit access to abortion medication, pursue a national abortion ban, dismantle environmental protections, repeal the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, and withhold federal disaster response funding, among other promises he made during the campaign.

Immigration advocates have pressed UC, CSU and California community colleges to hire students who missed out on qualifying for the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, known as DACA.
