More than 100 CEOs urge Congress to protect Dreamers

By Harper Neidig  - 01/10/18 05:10 PM EST


More than a hundred prominent chief executives are urging Congress to pass legislation to protect the young undocumented immigrants, the looming expiration of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program a “crisis.”

In a letter to House and Senate leaders sent on Wednesday, the group called on lawmakers to pass a bill supporting the so-called "Dreamers."

“We write to urge Congress to act immediately and pass a permanent bipartisan legislative solution to enable Dreamers who are currently living, working, and contributing to our communities to continue doing so,” the letter reads. “The imminent termination of the DACA program is creating an impending crisis for workforces across the country.”

And now we get to the crux of the matter! 
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
- J. R. R. Tolkien
