As you've probably heard by now, the Trump Administration made the decision to rescind the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program yesterday. This decision will have a profound impact on nearly 800,000 Americans. Regardless of your political leanings, it is important that we make our voices heard. The decision on immigration reform broadly, and DACA specifically, is now in the hands of the United States Congress!

 

Let's take action! I will be emailing both my US Representatives and Senators and I encourage you to do the same! To help facilitate this process, especially for those that have never done this before, I've drafted a letter for you to get the process started. 

 

Attached is an editable draft letter to Congress that you may use to express your views to your representatives. The website below will allow you to type in your zipcode to find both your US Representatives and Senators. Feel free to write to one or all of them.
