Many people disagree about the rights of Dreamers and the necessity of a lasting solution,
but one thing is for sure. Our situation is much better now that DACA is in place. DACA's
advantages go far beyond the work authorization and deportation relief it provides to those
who qualify. Compassion and compromise are necessary for those who were brought to the
United States as children. They're from the US. Restricting their progress would only serve
to limit the scope of our own national development.
DACA is a game-changer for recipients. It opened doors to training and employment
prospects. Many Dreamers dislike living in two-year intervals. Also, legal issues threaten
DACA's long-term survival. Over 11 million undocumented immigrants in the U.S. are eligible
for DACA, which leads to permanent residency and citizenship.
