Hi John --
Tomorrow the Supreme Court is hearing the first arguments against Trump's UNLAWFUL attempt to terminate DACA -- a critical protection for our friends, our families, and our neighbors.
We're meeting this moment with rallies all across the country TOMORROW, to send a clear message to the Supreme Court: DACA recipients are pillars of our communities and their home is here.
Find a rally near you and join us to stop Trump's attempt to separate 700,000 more families!
If you can't attend an event, add your name to the Families Belong Together People's Brief to show the Supreme Court there is overwhelming public support for Dreamers.
See you on the front lines.

John -- in 5 days the Supreme Court will hear the first arguments against the Trump Administration's attempt to terminate a critical protection for our friends, our families and our neighbors: DACA.
If Trump and Stephen Miller get their way, 700,000 families could be separated if the Supreme Court rules against DACA, which protects people who were brought here as children from deportation.
We're mobilizing to show our support and send a clear message to the Supreme Court: DACA recipients are pillars of our communities. Their home is here.
Look up your nearest rally here.
If you can't attend an event, add your name to the Families Belong Together People's Brief to show the Supreme Court there is overwhelming public support for Dreamers.
The consequences of the case are enormous: ending DACA would take away jobs from hundreds of thousands of people and tear apart their families.
One of those at risk is Eliana. Eliana came to the United States as a little kid, went to school in Long Island, graduated, got a job and started a family of her own. She's now a mom with two kids and a home in the same town she grew up in. DACA gives Eliana and her family protection -- but if it's repealed, she could be deported, tearing her family apart.
Already, hundreds of companies, colleges, and law enforcement officials -- from Apple's Tim Cook to the University of California -- have called on the Supreme Court to stop this inhumane attack. Now we need to mobilize to create a huge public mandate to super-charge the case:

This case is another attack from the Trump administration on immigrants and refugees of color. We've shown up before and we'll show up again. We won't let Trump separate families and we WILL save DACA.
See you on the front lines.
In unity,
