I am also worried that even if I am able to complete law school, my degree will be useless without a valid work permit. I want people who support me and others like me to educate themselves and take action, whether it be calling you congressmen and congresswomen and urging them to support a clean DREAM Act or attending rallies and other peaceful demonstrations.

What has DACA done for you, and why is it important for it to remain intact?

DACA allowed me to pursue higher education and brought a sense of safety and stability for my family and I. Because of DACA I was able to obtain a driver’s license, hold numerous jobs, participate in internships, and feel protected from deportation. But DACA was only temporary and I think that we need and deserve a permanent solution.
