I don't think they're analogous. I opposed DACA in 2012 and I oppose what Biden did with the Haitians. But there's a practical limit on how far you can reasonably go back. Trying to unring a bell from 12 years ago is a fool's errand and there's far more pressing uses for the enforcement resources. It's basically a work-visa program. Policy should be no new ones and if they break the conditions, they're gone... but we uphold the terms that were set out. And this is a sticking point - it should not provide any benefit to the parents. No special consideration, no rewards, no incentives for crashing the border in the first place. They get deported.
Biden's shit was 6 months ago. it would be less of a problem to go back on. But the easier route is to kill the entire TPS program and make sure that on Feb 3, 2026 they all have to go back. The only risk there is how many kids they can pump out in a year. Ending birthright citizenship is a whole issue of its own.
