Friend, I’m Diana Pliego, a Federal Advocacy Strategist at the National Immigration Law Center. We are in a critical moment in the fight for stability and safety for DACA recipients and, as someone whose life was transformed by DACA, I am reaching out to ask for your support. DACA is already being attacked in the courts and the courts are likely once again to decide its future. These overt, politicized attacks have caused so much uncertainty and anxiety for hundreds of thousands of young people, who are rightly afraid for their futures in the country where they have built their lives. Now we face the real possibility that the incoming Trump administration will try to further dismantle the program and upend the lives of DACA recipients and their loved ones. No one should have to live with such constant uncertainty. We need permanent legislative solutions that ensure the security and dignity of immigrant youth. NILC has a long history of fighting alongside immigrant youth, even challenging the Trump administration’s first attempt to end the program all the way to the Supreme Court. We are committed to fighting for a permanent pathway to citizenship for DACA recipients and DACA-eligible individuals, but we can't do it alone. Your support is crucial. Will you make a year-end donation to help us continue this vital work? Your contribution will empower us to stand with DACA recipients and other allies as we defend this life-changing program, and push Congress to act swiftly.
