These young immigrants are huge contributors to Texas. Congress must protect them
According to this article on Fort Worth Star-Telegram, by CHRIS WALLACE
“Nine years ago, Congress reached yet another stalemate on immigration reform – this time, it revolved around protections for young immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally by their families.
Because of this, President Barack Obama established the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, or DACA, as an urgent, yet temporary fix for these immigrants to earn an education and participate in our workforce and economy.
Almost a decade later, Congress remains stalled in its efforts to provide these “Dreamers” with permanent protections and an earned pathway to citizenship. This inaction leaves them beholden to the constraints that come with living under a temporary legal status and jeopardizes our regional, and national, economy.”
