If we don't renew this
program, they are gone. Think of that. They are technically
undocumented and illegal in this country. They volunteered to risk
their lives for America in service to our country. Now the Senator from
Texas says: Well, we are in no hurry to tell them whether they can
continue to serve in our military. As we look across America, we have 20,000 teachers. I met one of
those last Friday in Chicago. She is 24 years old, teaching in an
inner-city school, and protected by DACA. The minute DACA ends on March
5 of next year, she can no longer legally work in the Chicago Public
Schools system. She is finished. Pack up, clean out your desk, and go
home.
