Hey John, it’s Gisele.
I came to the U.S. as an undocumented child, so I understand all too well the pain of growing up in the shadows and the stress caused by the uncertainty of the situation.
Two years ago, on the 10th anniversary of DACA, I urged Congress to protect Dreamers by passing the Dream and Promise Act – which offers a path to permanent resident status. But the bill remains stalled in Congress.
Dreamers like me have gone to school, started families, paid taxes, and built businesses. Now, as DACA turns 12, all of that could be taken away.
We have to fight and advocate for a solution before it is too late. One group that has been on the frontlines is Casa San José.
In Pittsburgh, Casa San José is working towards a region that celebrates Latino culture, welcomes immigrants, and embraces inclusion, dignity, and respect. They are connecting, supporting, and advocating for the Latino community each and every day.
Will you join me in supporting the work that they do by making a $5 donation to their organization?

America is at its best when it is compassionate and welcoming. I dream of a future where everyone has opportunity. ♥️
In solidarity,
