Today, there was some good news out of the Supreme Court. In a 5-4 decision, the Court found that the Trump administration’s attempt to terminate the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals initiative was unlawful. The Court’s decision means that hundreds of thousands of young people in the United States will temporarily keep work authorization and protection from deportation. The Court emphasized that the Trump administration can still end DACA—but it must go through the right process to do so. The overwhelming majority of Americans support allowing undocumented immigrants brought here as children to continue to live and work in the United States. The president and Congress must ensure that Dreamers are able to live and work in the United States permanently. The U.S. House of Representatives has done its job by passing H.R. 6. The Senate should take up the bill immediately The Supreme Court’s decision provides temporary peace of mind for thousands of Dreamers across the country. It is also a testament to the hard work and perseverance of young immigrants and their allies across the country. Together, we will continue to advocate for a permanent solution for Dreamers and a fair and just immigration system. Sincerely,
