John — We wanted to make sure you saw our last email (below). Do you have two minutes today to take action to help protect Dreamers?

The end of DACA will negatively impact all of us, leading to a sudden loss of status for all Dreamers, separated families, and a worker shortage in in labor market sectors already experiencing shortages, such as healthcare, education, and more.

Only Congress can permanenly protect Dreamers, that's why we are calling on our elected officials to prioritize permanent protections for Dreamers before the year is over. [[link removed]]

DACA recipients deserve our support so take two minutes today to send a letter urging Congress to step up for DACA recipients. [[link removed]]

John — As the year quickly comes to an end, the clock is ticking for this Congress to protect DACA recipients and Dreamers permanently. Will you join us and call on Congress to prioritize permanent protections for dreamers in any end-of-year package and reach a bipartisan deal? [[link removed]]

The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program has transformed lives, communities and local economies. But never-ending, cruel and senseless court challenges have left DACA hanging by a thread with the future of DACA recipients — and some 90,000 DACA-eligible youth with stalled initial DACA requests — hanging in the balance.

The end of DACA will dramatically and negatively impact families, communities and the economy. Losing DACA will either mean a sudden loss of status for all Dreamers, or, at best, that an average of 1,000 dreamers will lose their jobs each business day – in essential jobs in labor market sectors already experiencing shortages, such as healthcare, education, service industries, food production and more.

As an organization that supports and fights alongside domestic workers for dignity and respect in the workplace – many of whom are immigrant women of color, Dreamers, and workers whose children are Dreamers – we are calling on Congress to pass permanent protections to end this ongoing nightmare for undocumented immigrants in our country.

Join us: send a letter to your elected officials and urge them to do the right thing and step up for DACA recipients THIS YEAR. [[link removed]]

DACA has helped hundreds of thousands of young people finish school, apply for a work permit, and be protected from detention and deportation. And so many DACA recipients are essential workers who contribute to our society and economy because it’s the only home they have ever known.

DACA by the numbers:

595,000: the current number of DACA beneficiaries
300,000: the number of DACA recipients who are parents
93: Percentage of of DACA recipients over the age of 25 that are currently employed
200,000: Number of DACA recipients that served as essential workers during the pandemic
56,000: Number of DACA recipients that are homeowners, making over $560 million in combined mortgage payments
$5.6 billion: Annual federal tax contribution of DACA households
$3.1 billion: Annual state and local tax contribution of DACA households
22,000: Jobs lost each month if DACA ends

DACA recipients are our family, friends, coworkers and neighbors that contribute greatly to our economy and local communities. They deserve our support and should not be forced to live in a constant state of terror over deportation or detention. The only path forward is for Congress to pass legislation THIS YEAR that protects DACA recipients.

Take two minutes today to send a letter urging Congress to step up for DACA recipients. [[link removed]]

The majority of domestic workers sit at the center of some of our nation’s most decisive issues because of who they are and what they do: they are women – mostly women of color, immigrants, mothers, and low-wage workers. They are impacted by almost every policy affecting the future of our economy, democracy and country.

Domestic workers can lead us toward a new, inclusive vision for the future for all of us -- and your grassroots support is the fuel that can get us there.
