KAPTUR. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent to include in the
Record a letter of support for revoking President Trump's threat to
deny 800,000 DREAMers legal status in this country and to support his
executive order affirming DACA for so many young people across this
Nation--4,400 in Ohio, for example--who are following the rules, who
came here as children, who are Americans as apple pie and only want a
chance to succeed in our country like Linda who was brought here from
Palestine when she was 8 years old. She is studying now in our area in
a very difficult STEM program and is working her way through college
through Work-Study in order to make a firm contribution to our Nation
in the future and to the future of whatever family she establishes. Why should they be denied this opportunity and made to feel so put
upon by the Government of the United States?
Identified stereotypes
Equating being American with apple pie.
