DACA has brought hundreds of thousands of young people out of the shadows -- allowing them to live without fear, go to school, work, and contribute to America in countless other ways. These young people's dreams are part of the American Dream. And they make it more real for all of us. Today's decision by the White House to terminate DACA -- and that is effectively what it attempts to do -- will crush their dreams and weaken the American Dream for the rest of us.
It's wrong because it's bad policy that solves no pressing problem and raises new ones. It's wrong because it's irresponsible, passing the buck instead of offering sensible solutions for immigration reform. Most of all, it's wrong because it's cruel to send these young people to places many of them have never lived and do not know. For them this is home. The United States is their home.

Much to my chagrin, that’s exactly what Trump did by NOT deporting them and granting Congress the time to DO THEIR JOB.
Still, Billy will be cheered by the left for his ignorant words...
yes generations of IMMIGRANTS have contributed...
but these are not IMMIGRANTS...
theyre illegal aliens...
they didn’t IMMIGRATE...
and it appears they are not going to be required to...
wheres the fairness and “happy” in that treasonous travesty ???
meanwhile the current IMMIGRANTS are still waiting in line in their own countries, pushed further back again...
Bill is worried about all of little Latinas he has yet to grope and fondle
Your rant is misdirected; I agree wholeheartedly.
