It is unconscionable that this bill will condemn Dreamers and their parents to secondclass status. It is unconscionable that this bill will cruelly foreclose any possibility that Dreamers and their parents could adjust their status. regardless of how hard they work or how much they contribute to their communities and our country. If deported. their loss will be Americas loss as we will lose the benefits of their talents and their ability to strengthen our economy and enrich our nation. If we end DACA. our country could lose young people like Paola. a medical student from Los Angeles. to cure the sick. We would lose Andree. a brilliant young woman who is also from LA. who is studying at Harvard and dreams of one day curing cancer. President Clinton once observed that "we cannot build our own future without helping others to build theirs." That sentimentthe basic awareness that were all in this togetheris at the center of the American Dream. a Dream which is threatened by the bill before us.
