DACA recipients still have rights! |
SEIU CALIFORNIA DENOUNCES TRUMP ADMINISTRATION’S DESTRUCTION OF DACA & VILE ATTACK ON DREAMERS
Sacramento – The Service Employees International Union (SEIU) California released the following statement from SEIU USWW President David Huerta following the Trump Administration’s shameful attack on young women and men protected by the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program:
“The Trump Administration has once again shown that they lack compassion and an understanding of the needs of the American people by now targeting 800,000 young men and women, who know no other home than the United States. These DACA recipients are bravely pursuing the right to go to school, work and fulfill their American dream.
“We urge Republicans in Congress to stand up for these hardworking Dreamers. You have an opportunity to deliver a policy that upholds American values of hard work and determination and not allow hate or fear to guide decisions and law.
“To the Dreamers who have boldly fought for their place in this country: we continue to stand in solidarity with you and we will fight every step of the way to protect your right to live and work in this nation with dignity and respect.”
