Donald Trump Is Systematically Dismantling Our Immigration System

As we mark the 14th anniversary of DACA, we must remain clear-eyed about what Donald Trump is doing to systematically dismantle our immigration system. He is slow-walking DACA renewals, threatening the legal status of Dreamers, and creating new barriers for immigrants who are following the law and contributing to our economy. Hundreds of thousands of DACA recipients know no other home than America. Many were brought here as young children and have spent nearly their entire lives in this country. Here in Sacramento County, they are healthcare workers, educators, researchers advancing biomedical innovation, utility workers, and more. They do not deserve to live under the constant fear of deportation. I will continue fighting to protect Dreamers and push back against these attacks on the very values that define us as a nation of immigrants.
