Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN. Mr. Speaker, there are very few legislative days
left this calendar year, and the House has yet to debate and vote on
the Dream Act or any legislative proposal that would shield our
DREAMers from deportation. The administration created an arbitrary deadline of March 5 before
the DACA program begins to phase out. However, Mr. Speaker, we cannot,
we should not, and we must not wait until the very last minute to take
action. Every day that goes by, DREAMers are losing protections; they can't
get that job they so desperately need; and they can't apply to the
school that they want.
