KRISHNAMOORTHI. Mr. Speaker, since the Trump administration
announced the end of the DACA program in September, more than 16,000
people have already lost their protection from deportation and their
ability to work. Each day we fail to act to protect DREAMers, 122 more
people lose those protections and the ability to contribute to their
country in the same way they have for as long as they have lived here. These DREAMers teach our children, care for our loved ones, start
businesses, strengthen our communities, defend our Nation, and believe
that our country, their country, will see them for the Americans they
are.
