‘Dreamers’ are losing their jobs waiting for renewals under Trump: ‘It feels like a personal attack’

Claudia, a Daca recipient who immigrated to the U.S. at age four, is experiencing significant delays in renewing her immigration status. What once took weeks is now extending to six months, putting her life on hold. This prolonged processing time for Daca renewals under the Trump administration is causing 'Dreamers' to lose their jobs and feel personally attacked. The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (Daca) program, established in 2012, protects undocumented immigrants who arrived in the U.S. as children from deportation, and these delays threaten their stability and ability to work legally.
