Court fight over DACA highlights legal rights of noncitizens Posted: 05 Mar 2018 02:11 PM PST When Clete Samson was a government prosecutor at the Department of Homeland Security's special immigration court, he says that respecting the constitutional rights of immigrants accused of breaking US laws was part of the job.
