The nerve to phase out a program that has done nothing, expect to bring together the brightest minds into the U.S. workforce and educational institutions, is unprecedented. It’s utterly barbaric to ostracize thousands of individuals, who followed the regulations within the immigration system and upheld themselves as distinguished citizens, to prohibit the fundamental right to pursue the American dream through hard work and education. I know individuals who struggle to maintain their DACA statuses and face the constant fear of deportation because of a slip up as simple as a traffic violation. I cannot grasp the concept of a higher authority eliminating individuals based on a piece of paper that defines them as a citizen. Honestly, my allegiance lies solely within the Democratic Party because they function on using emotions to create change within the government by stating how America prospered due to immigrant influence.
