Congress must pass the Dream Act Now

 

 

 

Background

President Trump ended the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) Program. It’s Time for Lawmakers to Act. Government funding expires Friday, December 8 and Congress has the opportunity to include protections for Dreamers in its must-pass spending bill.  .

 

Action Requested

  • Next Wednesday, December 6, thousands of advocates and community leaders are gathering in Washington, D.C. to call on Congress to pass the Dream Act and permanent residency for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) holders this year. If you’re in the D.C. area, RSVP on Facebook here.
  • Tweet all week using #DreamActNow.
  • Stand with Dreamers by changing your profile pictures on social media using this Twibbon frame.
  • Call your members of Congress and urge them to protect Dreamers before going home for the holidays.
