John,  

For Dreamers, the future is as uncertain as ever.  

Last week, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit upheld an
earlier lower court ruling that the DACA policy, as it was created in
2012, was unlawful. The court declined to rule on the legality of a new
rule on DACA that was recently issued by the Biden administration,
sending the case to a lower court to consider that issue. Given previous
decisions, it is unlikely that the lower court will allow the new DACA
rule to take effect. 

As the case continues to move through the courts, including a potential
appeal to the Supreme Court, the 5th Circuit is allowing current DACA
recipients to maintain their protections, but continues to block the
government from processing new applications for DACA.  

DACA has been a lifeline for countless individuals. 

It's time for Congress to pass a permanent legislative solution. Make
a gift today to help expand our advocacy efforts for Dreamers and
ongoing immigration reform efforts.
 
 

Dreamers have deep roots in the United States, having formed families,
opened businesses, and purchased homes here.   

They are essential members of our communities, and their contributions
are critical to our economy: DACA recipients own 68,000 homes, hold $25
billion in spending power in the American economy, and contribute
billions in federal, state and local taxes each year.   

With DACA's future imperiled, a permanent legislative solution from
Congress would finally end the instability that Dreamers face, allowing
them to continue living in and enriching the only country many of them
have known. 

Help us continue this critical work fighting for a legislative solution
for Dreamers and ongoing immigration reform efforts. Make a gift today!
  

Your contribution will help us reach, engage and mobilize constituents
across the country to expand our advocacy work for DACA recipients and
other Dreamers.
