John,

For 11 years, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) has
safeguarded eligible Dreamers who came to the U.S. as children from
deportation. But today, U.S. District Judge Andrew S. Hanen of the
Southern District of Texas ruled that the Biden administration's new
rule codifying DACA is not lawful, bringing it a step closer to its
potential end. Current recipients won't be affected.

The decision is very likely to be appealed but faces tough odds in the
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. The court already has ruled
that the original DACA program is **unlawful**

in an earlier decision.

We can't stay on the sidelines while countless Dreamers are at risk of
being separated from their loved ones. The time is now for supporters
like you, John, to mobilize and demand Congress provide stability
for Dreamers in our communities who are our neighbors, friends, and
colleagues.

**Tell Congress to protect Dreamers and pass a permanent legislative
solution.**

DACA has been a lifeline for nearly 600,000 people who are studying and
working in the U.S., including in many industries where worker shortages
are an ongoing and serious challenge. Dreamers are essential members of
our communities, and their contributions are critical to our economy:
DACA recipients hold $25 billion in spending power in the American
economy, and contribute billions in federal, state and local taxes each
year.

Without a permanent solution from Congress, DACA recipients and their
families and employers face an uncertain future.

**Contact your members of Congress and tell them to support permanent
legislative solutions for Dreamers.**

An overwhelming number of Americans support solutions for Dreamers -
and it's time Congress listen and pass permanent solutions now.

Thank you for your ongoing support,

Christian Penichet-Paul
