Hello to all senators and representatives, I’d like to start this meeting by making a point about the children and young adults stuck in the bureaucratical limbo that is the “Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals” or more commonly known as DACA. I am involved in that program myself so I can speak first hand from my own experience. I am a high school senior and like most I have plans to go to college, but unlike my pears who fear college life and socio problems I fear another problem, my legality and security. Every qualifying DACA recipient had to come here when they were children, I myself came here when I was five. For all practical purposes I feel like an American citizen hence I do not think these children should be punished for the actions
