Health & Medicine stands with Illinois’ over 40,000 Dreamers and the thousands more across the country.
The young people affected by the decision of this Administration to end DACA are our neighbors, our friends, and our co-workers including the many young doctors, nurses, and health professionals who are Dreamers and now, after years of hard work, could lose everything. These young people contribute to the vibrancy of their neighborhoods and strengthen the fabric and health of our communities.
The decision to end DACA hurts Illinois families, communities, and our economy. We all must stand up for Dreamers. Tell Congress and the administration to defend the DREAM Act. It’s the right thing to do.
