Friend, what happens if DACA ends?
This is the question that hundreds of thousands of DACA recipients have been asking themselves for years, as members of Congress fail to deliver permanent protections for our communities.
For thirteen years, DACA has allowed immigrant youth to build their families, careers, and businesses in the U.S. DACA recipients are part of the fabric of our communities — they teach our children, care for our loved ones, and contribute billions to our economy every year.
We have organized relentlessly to ensure DACA recipients and immigrant youth can continue living in safety and dignity in the only home they’ve ever known. But with immigration agents violating DACA protections and detaining DACA recipients, every single one of us will need to speak out to protect the safety and stability of our neighbors.
When immigrants are attacked, we all pay the price. If DACA ended tomorrow, our communities would face unimaginable economic harm:
-
💼 Our country would lose 1,000 jobs every single business day for the next two years — that’s nearly 500,000 jobs lost!
-
🏥 At least 18,000 jobs would be lost every month, including 1,500 healthcare workers, 700 teachers and educators, and 600 personal care workers who help our communities thrive
-
👪 At least 13,000 US citizen children would be at risk of losing their parent to detention and deportation
