I was able to get a job for the first time, I was allowed to get my license, and go to college. To have hope about my future. Currently I’m studying communication and media, with no federal student aid as I did not qualify as a DACA student, just the scholarships and grants I earned in school. I don’t know what the future holds, but I’m not afraid. I’m 21 years old and spent 15 of those years in the USA. This is my home and I’m here to stay.” — Mila Ipek Acar, student from New York, N.Y. Source: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/projects/storywall/americandreamers/stories/mila-ipek-acar Do you agree (sympathize with) or disagree (do not sympathize with) with this quote? Why do you feel how you feel about this quote?

President Trump had a duty to rescind that policy, because the Constitution makes very clear that Congress, not the White House, sets the laws in this land.” — Rosemary Jenks, the director of government relations for NumbersUSA, a group that advocates limiting immigration Source: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/12/us/politics/senate-immigration-debate.html Do you agree (sympathize with) or disagree (do not sympathize with) with this quote? Why do you feel how you feel about this quote? (Complete sentenes!)Quote #4 “At the risk of sounding cliché, DACA opened doors for me. It goes well beyond just being able to work, and get a license, and fly domestically. You see, what all of us want is simple. We just want the opportunity to emerge from the shadows, to work and support our families, to contribute back to our communities, to love our partners/spouses without the fear of being deported at a moment’s notice. We have that now. But for how long?” — Giovanni, consultant at a venture-backed tech startup from San Francisco, Calif. Source: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/projects/storywall/americandreamers/stories/giovanni Do you agree (sympathize with) or disagree (do not sympathize with) with this quote? Why do you feel how you feel about this quote?

I am proud to be Mexican but I’m also proud to be part of America’s great educational system. DACA has given me the opportunity to dream of my own white picked fence one day.” — Miriam OchoaGaribay, Political Science Major at UCR from Santa Ana, Calif. Source:https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/projects/storywall/americandreamers/stories/miriam-ochoa-garibay Do you agree (sympathize with) or disagree (do not sympathize with) with this quote? Why do you feel how you feel about this quote? (Complete sentenes!) Quote #7 “I’ve made very clear, Mme. President, that I believe we need a legislative fix for DACA. We cannot continue to keep people in our country — and grant them work authorization — by executive fiat. DACA recipients deserve certainty. So, too, do other immigrants who entered our country legally and have done their best to follow the rules. We also need better border security and interior enforcement. Thirty years ago, we granted amnesty to nearly three million illegal immigrants, and the result over the next two decades was a surge in illegal immigration. We need to prevent that from happening again.” — Orin Hatch, U.S. Senator for UtahSource: https://www.hatch.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/releases?ID=8C9669E8-1965-44D3- 9453-85E6F714F8B2 Do you agree (sympathize with) or disagree (do not sympathize with) with this quote? Why do you feel how you feel about this quote? (Complete sentenes!) Quote #8 “As the Senate begins debate this week on an immigration bill, we must remember what’s at stake: protecting the hundreds of thousands of Dreamers who are about to lose their status because of President Trump’s decision to rescind the DACA program. Their protection should not be contingent on dramatic changes to our immigration system. Instead, we must focus on providing certainty to Dreamers and keeping families together.” — Michael Bennet, U.S. Senator for ColoradoSource: https://www.bennet.senate.gov/?p=release&id=4158 Do you agree (sympathize with) or disagree (do not sympathize with) with this quote? Why do you feel how you feel about this quote?
