Speaker. the poster beside me depicts the moment in Pope Francis parade through D.C. when a little girl snuck through the barrier and was lifted into the Popes arms on live TV. That little girl is a constituent of mine. Sophie Cruz. a 5yearold from the City of South Gate. She is one of 5 million children who are American citizens. but whose undocumented parents face deportation. She gave the Pope a Tshirt with a message in Spanish that read: "Pope. rescue DAPA so the legalization can be your blessing." Deferred Action for Parental Accountability. or DAPA. is a program that would stop the deportation of parents of American children. So far. DAPA faces strong opposition.
