Let's act quickly because for every single day that passes now, these individuals and their extended families are in a whirl of pain and uncertainty. That simply isn't right. Let's protect these Dreamers who are here through no fault of their own, who have contributed an enormous amount to our country, and who are American in every single way that matters. To paraphrase President Madison, we are a nation that is indebted to immigration for our incredible success. We cannot--we must not renege on that debt by turning our backs on the Dreamers. It would undermine our Nation's moral standing.
