Friend,

I am a DACA recipient. Like so many others, I was devastated by the Fifth Circuit decision in October ruling DACA to be unlawful. The case was sent back to the lower court to decide the fate of the program and the futures of more than 600,000 young immigrants whose home is here.

Once again, our lives are hanging in the balance of a court decision. I feel angry, and anxious of what’s to come because, despite the consistent and widespread support from the American public, Congress still has yet to pass a permanent solution.

I know I am not alone in feeling this way. Across the country, hundreds of thousands of people with DACA and their loved ones are grappling with uncertainty. One thing is for sure — we at NILC, our partners, and immigrant youth everywhere are doing everything we can to fight for our community and we need everyone’s support in this fight.

Friend, will you support our fight with a donation today? We rely on donations from trusted partners like you to help fuel our work to compel Congress to act NOW >>>

Your support means so much to me, my loved ones, and hundreds of thousands of DACA recipients.

Thank you,
