Today’s Action: Demand Congress Protect Dreamers
In September, President Trump rescinded the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program (DACA), which prevented the deportation of 800,000 young people brought to our country as children.
Trump plans to begin deportations starting in March, unless Congress takes action now by passing the DREAM Act — and this week provides a unique opportunity to make that happen.
With government funding set to expire this Friday, Senate Republicans need Democrats to pass a “Continuing Resolution” (CR) and avoid a government shutdown. That means Democrats have the leverage to demand a clean DREAM Act be included in the bill, and they must use it.
The Dream Act has broad bipartisan public support – even most Trump supporters don’t want to see billions of tax dollars spent deporting innocent, hard-working young people whose only crime is pursuing the American Dream.
Beyond the ethical question, Dreamers will add $281 billion to the economy that would be forfeited if Trump succeeds in his bigoted attempt to evict them from the only country they have ever called home.
Tell them 800,000 young lives are looking to them to make the right choice – and so are you.
