President Donald Trump is expected on Friday to eliminate a program protecting young people brought to the United States illegally as children from being deported — a move that's drawing fierce criticism from the tech industry.

The program in question is called Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, and since it was implemented under former President Barack Obama, more than 800,000 so-called Dreamers have been allowed to stay in the country by obtaining renewable work permits.
