Dick Durbin to Americans: DACA Illegal Aliens Are ‘the Future of Our Country’



by JOHN BINDER 12 Jun 2024

In celebrating 12 years since former President Barack Obama created the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) said DACA illegal aliens are “the future of our country.”

In 2021, Obama created the DACA program via executive order after Durbin and former Sen. Orrin Hatch’s (R-UT) “DREAM Act” amnesty legislation failed to pass Congress. The program has shielded more than 800,000 illegal aliens from deportation from the United States.

Commemorating 12 years of the program, Durbin spoke on the Senate floor on Wednesday, calling DACA illegal aliens not only “the future” of the United States, but also “absolutely essential” to the nation’s economy, suggesting that their arrival, albeit illegal, is part of the fabric of America.

“First and foremost, we are a nation of immigrants,” Durbin asserted. “… ]T]hey’re the future of our country.

They can bring to us things that we need desperately. They’ve earned the right to live in this country without fear.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

If people who commit illegal acts are "the future of our country," then Charkes Manson and his followers should be considered founding mothers and fathers. *****rollingeyes*****
