The fate of at least 700,000 undocumented immigrants, who were brought to the United States as children, could become one of the defining issues of the 2020 presidential election.

President Donald Trump is trying to end a programme that temporarily protected them from deportation.

The Supreme Court is set to make a decision on their future, just months before election day.
