The effect of (DACA) Dreamers on the U.S. Economy
In June 2012, the Obama Administration created the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) immigration policy. The goal was to provide prosecutorial discretion to governmental agencies who had access to limited resources. That policy was rescinded by the Trump Administration in 2017, which asked Congress to then revisit legal options, not discretionary options that address this immigration issue.
Many of those who were covered by (DACA) have been in the United States for more than a decade. Some have been here almost their entire lives. The US is the only country that they have known. It is their home. Passing of the Dream Act will open the door to a path toward possible legalized citizenship for DACA recipients. They will be allowed to stay in this country instead of being forced to return to a country they don't know or even remember.
There are an estimated 1,000 individuals who are currently serving in the US military who were covered by (DACA). Although that number is small, the individuals involved are integral members of their units, which would be disrupted if they were forced to be deported. The Dream Act supports the US military because it eliminates the threat of removing soldiers who are faithfully serving the only country they have ever loved.
The repeal or rollback of the (DACA) program would have a significant and negative fiscal and economic impact on the country, and disproportionately affect the various states in which (DACA) recipients are most prevalent, the progressive center for American Progress suggests that figure could be closer to $460 billion over the next decade.
Here are some reasons why:
• 91% of (DACA) recipients work and pay taxes
• 5% have started their own business
• Their average earnings are $36,232
• 16% have purchased a first home since receiving (DACA), and nearly two third have purchased a first car
• Nearly three quarters of the largest Fortune 500 companies employ (DACA) workers.
Before the government shutdown January 19th, 2018, Senator Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer believed cutting a deal with President Trump was his best chance to protect "dreamers" more than 1 million undocumented immigrants who had arrived to this country as children. Senator Schumer blames the impasse over the immigration and the subsequent shutdown on Trump's inability to strike a consistent position in private and public statements, reducing his trust in the president's ability as a negotiating partner.

1. The effect of (DACA) Dreamers on the U.S. Economy
In June 2012, the Obama Administration created the Deferred
Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) immigration policy. The
goal was to provide prosecutorial discretion to governmental
agencies who had access to limited resources. That policy was
rescinded by the Trump Administration in 2017, which asked
Congress to then revisit legal options, not discretionary options
that address this immigration issue.
Many of those who were covered by (DACA) have been in the
United States for more than a decade. Some have been here
almost their entire lives. The US is the only country that they
have known. It is their home. Passing of the Dream Act will
open the door to a path toward possible legalized citizenship for
DACA recipients. They will be allowed to stay in this country
instead of being forced to return to a country they don't know or
even remember.
There are an estimated 1,000 individuals who are currently
serving in the US military who were covered by (DACA).
Although that number is small, the individuals involved are
integral members of their units, which would be disrupted if
they were forced to be deported. The Dream Act supports the
US military because it eliminates the threat of removing
soldiers who are faithfully serving the only country they have
ever loved.
The repeal or rollback of the (DACA) program would have a
significant and negative fiscal and economic impact on the
country, and disproportionately affect the various states in
which (DACA) recipients are most prevalent, the progressive
center for American Progress suggests that figure could be
closer to $460 billion over the next decade.
Here are some reasons why:
• 91% of (DACA) recipients work and pay taxes
• 5% have started their own business
• Their average earnings are $36,232
2. • 16% have purchased a first home since receiving (DACA), and
nearly two third have purchased a first car
• Nearly three quarters of the largest Fortune 500 companies
employ (DACA) workers.
Before the government shutdown January 19th, 2018, Senator
Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer believed cutting a deal
with President Trump was his best chance to protect "dreamers"
more than 1 million undocumented immigrants who had arrived
to this country as children. Senator Schumer blames the impasse
over the immigration and the subsequent shutdown on Trump's
inability to strike a consistent position in private and public
statements, reducing his trust in the president's ability as a
negotiating partner. Senator Schumer still believe the president
still has a good chance to pass the immigration bill as long as
he doesn't mess it all up, which could well happen.
In conclusion, this country is "called" the United States of
America. The habitants emigrated here from various parts of the
world. America is a great nation because of its people; their
ancestors migrated from all over the world and settled in
America. These people shared their culture, food and language;
thus, making the United States of America the "great" nation it
is today. Taking this into consideration; the dreamers were
brought to this country while they were infant and naive, they
didn't have a choice in the matter; therefore, they should not be
held responsible for their parents' actions. Many parents came
to this country for a better life and a bright future for their
children to succeed academically and financially.
