Mr. PAYNE. Mr. Speaker, President Trump's decision to end the DACA program is wrong. Today's announcement impacts over 22,000 New Jerseyans and over 800,000 people across the country. The primary beneficiaries of DACA are young people who were brought here to this country by no decision of their own. In New Jersey, most DACA recipients are in the group of 18 to 21 years of age. At that age, they should be focused on college, developing trades, and overall sharpening their skills that will ultimately benefit our Nation. Unfortunately, their future is now at the mercy of Congress. This issue transcends party, Mr.
