Vasquez, Chair of the Migration Committee at
the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and Bishop of Austin,
Texas, said recently in a statement.
``These young people entered the U.S. as children and know
America as their only home. The dignity of every human being,
particularly that of our children and youth, must be
protected.''
We join Bishop Vasquez in urging you to uphold the DACA
program. On several occasions, you have expressed that you
would not make changes to DACA. We strongly encourage you to
maintain DACA as an essential program for the well-being of
young people and our communities. Please know we are praying that you use your power
prudently and that we remain committed to constructive
dialogue.
