Anxiety and fear loomed over me; the only thing holding me from pursuing my path, was a simple identification card that defined if I was able to stay in my home or be forced to a country I had only slim memories of.

The child must have to be here, in the United States, before their 16th birthday and must be in good standing with the law. DACA is like a work permit that has to be renewed every two years and DAPA is the same, but for the parents of children who already maintain citizenship or permanent residence in the United States. The Dream Act, passed by governor Jerry Brown, helps students go to college and pursue a higher education if they meet the requirements. Those requirements sustain that the person must have proof of entrance into the United States before the age of 16 and must have continuously lived in the country for at least 5 years, must have graduated from a United States high school or obtained a GED, has been a person who demonstrates good moral character, must pass criminal background checks and reviews/came legally.…

However, the DACA program process does not grant legal status to the recipients and is not a path to American citizenship and it is only a temporary relief where the dreamers may not be deported for two years.…
House Speaker Paul D. Ryan states, ¨These kids know no other country, who were brought here by their parents and don't know another home¨ ( Somin, 2017). This quote brings up one reason why DACA needs to stay, the children do not have a say in most situations.

No child should have to be punished for something their parent does to better their child's life. Twenty five percent of DACA recipients have children who were born in the United States (Somin, 2017).…
