🚨 The Trump administration just told Dreamers to self-deport.

DACA recipients are our neighbors, our nurses, our teachers, our engineers.

These are good people. They’ve followed the rules. They’ve paid their taxes. They’ve built lives and families here. Telling them to leave is telling them to abandon the only home they’ve ever known.

To urge them to “self-deport” is cruel, senseless, and un-American.

We stand with Dreamers today, tomorrow, and every day. We must give them the permanent protections and pathway to citizenship they deserve.
