Protect The Dreamers - And Response

  • Friday, January 19, 2018

Children of illegal immigrants brought here as juveniles should be able to stay here. 

When these children were brought to the U.S. they did not, willingly with any intent, violate immigration laws. They were too young to even know what immigration laws were. For many, this is the only home they have ever known. Now, as educated and otherwise law abiding young adults, it would be a travesty of justice to uproot and deport them now. 

The so called “Dreamers” are human beings made in the image of God and should be treated with dignity. 

Our national politicians should find a way to protect the “Dreamers,” who have committed no other serious crimes. It is simply the right thing to do.
