Mexico, El Salvador urge protections for U.S. 'Dreamers'
Reuters, Sep 5, 2017, Stefanie Eschenbacher
Mexico’s deputy foreign minister, Carlos Sada, said the Trump’s decision created “anxiety, anguish and fear.” The change could affect some 625,000 Mexican nationals, a majority of the nearly 800,000 young men and women who were brought into the United States illegally as children and are protected under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
“They are exceptional. ... This is as emotional for the United States as for Mexico,” Sada said at a news conference immediately following the announcement to end the program. He urged for a quick solution to the uncertainty that “dreamers,” as they are commonly called, now face in their adopted home.
Migrants who opt to return to Mexico will be welcomed with “open arms,” Sada said, offering them assistance with work, finances and education.

El Salvador’s foreign relations minister, Hugo Martinez, said on Tuesday that he would meet with members of the U.S. Congress in Washington to push for a solution within the next six months, before DACA’s provisions are set to end, aiming to protect the 30,000 to 60,000 Salvadorans who could be affected.
“It’s a worrisome situation. ... We will be lobbying to have legislation as soon as possible that opens a way out, that opens a bridge for the beneficiaries of DACA,” Martinez said.

Maybe Meh-Hee-Co and El Salvador should ask themselves why their countries suck so much that people want to leave.

I think the illegal Salvadorans can best be protected in their nation of origin. Return to sender.

Hey Mexico and El Salvador, How about you protect your own 'exceptionals' instead?
