Responding to the USA Today story of the first DREAMer to be deported, DCCC Hispanic Media Director, Javier Gamboa, issued the following statement:
“President Trump and every Republican in Congress who promised that no DREAMer would be targeted, let alone be deported, owns this grave moral failure. As the fear continues to grow and families are torn apart, Democrats stand stronger than ever with our immigrant brothers and sisters and reaffirm our commitment to protecting those who have known no other home than the United States of America. Today will go down in infamy.”
