This is the only home they have ever known. This is the only country that any of them or many of them can even remember. The idea of simply doing away with the legal status that they have, subjecting them to deportation, subjecting them to being taken away from the only country they have ever known and loved is literally beyond comprehension and unspeakable. In September, when Trump initiated this process by rescinding Obama's Executive order on DACA, he said to the Congress, the Republican leadership in the House and Senate: You fix it. Get legislation. Well, there are people right now--Senator Durbin, Senator Graham, and others--who are working on legislation, which doesn't go as far as I would like it to go, but they are working on serious legislation in the House.
