Kevin McCarthy to support the DREAM Act in his office at the Capitol in Sacramento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Five of the members arrested were immigrant youth. They were representing more than 200,000 undocumented immigrant youth living in California who risk losing their DACA protection from arrest, detention, and deportation. The two other members arrested were CHIRLA's Executive Director Angelica Salas and Civic Engagement Director, Diana Colin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Update, Jan 17, 2018, 3:45 p.m.: \u003c/strong>\u003c/em>The Department of Justice is appealing a \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2018/01/10/federal-judge-temporarily-blocks-trumps-decision-to-end-daca/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">court ruling that blocked\u003c/a> the Trump administration from ending the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The department says it will take “the rare step” later this week of filing a petition asking the Supreme Court to intervene.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They have also filed a notice of appeal to the 9th U.S. Court of Appeals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Update, Jan. 10, 2018, 4:42 p.m.: \u003c/strong>\u003c/em>A federal judge with the \u003ca href=\"https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/4345906/1-9-18-DACA-Opinion.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California\u003c/a> blocked President Trump’s phased-in termination of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, DACA, pending the outcome of legal challenges. Judge William Alsup wrote that DACA recipients would suffer “irreparable harm” as they lose DACA protections. It’s unclear how federal officials will handle DACA renewal applications they rejected for failing to meet an Oct. 5 deadline. A Department of Justice statement said the department will defend the termination, calling DACA an “unlawful circumvention of Congress,” and a White House statement called on Congress to find a solution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Original Post:\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> Luis Galvan, 20, enjoyed a moment of triumph in late October when he boarded a plane for the first time and flew to Indianapolis to receive his Future Farmers of America degree, a prestigious certificate of achievement in the world of agriculture. Galvan was proud that all his grueling work with livestock and crops had paid off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But his euphoria was short-lived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Galvan got home he tore open an envelope waiting for him from the Department of Homeland Security. It was crushing news. He had submitted his application to renew a vital work permit for young immigrants known as “Dreamers” in plenty of time, along with a renewal fee. He received a notice back that there was a snafu over a $495 scholarship check he had submitted to pay the fee, and he promptly followed instructions to correct that. But now, this second, final notice told him his application was rejected for being late.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If Galvan can’t appeal the rejection, his work permit is set to expire Jan. 15. That would jeopardize his job tutoring junior high kids. It would affect his studies at college. It could even lead to him being deported.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What a bucket of cold water,” Galvan said, during a late-night interview in Porterville, the small California farm city where he grew up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Surrounded by a sea of orchards—including oranges now flooding U.S. markets—Porterville sits in California’s vast Central Valley. Considered one of the world’s most productive agribusiness regions, the valley depends on immigrant labor. And among those who represent the region in Congress are multiple Republican lawmakers, not least of them Rep. Kevin McCarthy, the powerful GOP majority leader whose district includes Porterville.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The work permit Galvan holds stems from his status as a recipient of \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/16/us/us-to-stop-deporting-some-illegal-immigrants.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DACA\u003c/a>, the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program whose fate rests, in no small part, in McCarthy’s hands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former President Barack Obama created DACA in 2012 to allow undocumented young people brought to the United States as children to stay legally, conditionally, until, Obama said he hoped, Congress came up with a solution to help them. Nicknamed Dreamers, this population has no sure path to legal residency, no matter how long they’ve been here or how much they accomplish. DACA has temporarily protected them from deportation and allowed them to obtain work permits. On Sept. 5 though, President Donald Trump announced that he was pulling the plug on DACA, arguing in a statement that Obama lacked authority to create the program and that policy should be “fair to American families, students, taxpayers and jobseekers.” Spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders added that unemployed Americans could possibly assume DACA recipients’ jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11642514\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 380px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11642514\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2.jpeg\" alt=\"Leydy Rangel, 22, and Eloisa Torres, 18, undocumented DACA recipients from Bakersfield, work up enthusiasm before trying to speak to House members in Washington, D.C. about a proposal to let them earn permanent legal status. \" width=\"380\" height=\"253\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2.jpeg 380w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2-160x107.jpeg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2-240x160.jpeg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2-375x250.jpeg 375w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 380px) 100vw, 380px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Leydy Rangel, 22, and Eloisa Torres, 18, undocumented DACA recipients from Bakersfield, work up enthusiasm before trying to speak to House members in Washington, D.C. about a proposal to let them earn permanent legal status. \u003ccite>(Susan Ferriss/Center for Public Integrity)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Nearly 800,000 DACA recipients were suddenly plunged into uncertainty. Dreamers whose work permits were soon to expire were given a chance to apply, one last time, for two-year renewals by Oct. 5. Many missed the tight deadline or had applications they say were denied unfairly. If nothing changes, after March, all DACA recipients will begin to lose permits in waves as each card expires.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The situation remains up in the air. Despite his harsh rhetoric claiming Dreamers occupy Americans’ jobs, Trump too challenged Congress to come up with a legislative fix with “heart” to help Dreamers before the March deadline. A flurry of negotiations to pass such a bill collapsed just prior to the holiday break. GOP leaders now say Congress will take up DACA again this month, as part of broader debate over Trump’s demands for more border wall investments and cuts in family-based immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the politics are complicated, and they’re especially complicated here in California, home to at least a quarter of Dreamers. Most polling, from ABC to Fox News, shows that 60 to upwards of 80 percent of Americans think Dreamers should get a chance to stay and become legalized. In and around Porterville, Dreamers and their backers angrily question why McCarthy and fellow congressmen from California’s Central Valley aren’t vigorously pushing for a legislative fix — pronto — because so many Dreamers’ lives hang in the balance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCarthy declined an interview but in careful language has backed crafting a DACA fix as long as it’s coupled with more investments in border security measures. He said in a statement that he supported Trump’s position and that Congress is working on a “lawful solution to this problem.” It’s clear to everyone that McCarthy is not publicly leading a passionate charge to defend Dreamers. But the raw politics of both Washington and his district are hardly demanding that he do so — at least not right now. McCarthy won his last two elections with 75 percent and 69 percent of the vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>\u003cstrong>Differing perspectives\u003c/strong>\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>On the ground in McCarthy’s district, however, where Latinos are 41 percent of the total population and 27 percent of those eligible to vote, feelings can also get more than a little raw. The 52-year-old congressman, a lifelong Bakersfield resident, represents most of Tulare County, where Porterville is located, and the majority of California’s sprawling Kern County. Kern is peppered with oil rigs that produce more oil than Oklahoma. The county is also home to military-industrial-complex interests. Kern’s formidable agribusiness production, consisting of grapes, fruit trees, scores of other crops and milk, made it the number one farm county in the nation in 2016 at $7.19 billion in value. Tulare’s farm production value was $6.37 billion. The state, as a whole, is by far the nation’s biggest dairy-producing state, while also producing almost half the nation’s fruits, nuts and vegetables.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-11642517\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"897\" height=\"1100\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM.png 897w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-160x196.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-800x981.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-240x294.png 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-375x460.png 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-520x638.png 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 897px) 100vw, 897px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those stats form the basis for part of the passion here. After all, advocates for Dreamers argue California supplies a massive quantity of the food Americans consume. And agribusiness has acknowledged for a long time that immigrants, many of them undocumented and the parents of Dreamers, are essential to creating this bounty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve complained to McCarthy’s office: What about the Dreamers?” said John Duran, 67, a Republican in Porterville who is of Mexican descent but not an immigrant. “He needs to be doing more. But because he’s Republican he’s got to follow their agenda.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are no exact numbers, but McCarthy’s 23rd Congressional District is home to an estimated 7,900 young people who fit the profile of those eligible to have signed up for DACA, according to analysis of Census Bureau data by the University of Southern California. Adjacent GOP districts have as many or even more of these young people, who were eligible to sign up for DACA once they reached 16, if they had lived here since at least June 15, 2007.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Duran, a former correctional officer who’s active in local politics, said he’s generally pro-Trump and is strongly opposed to government “giveaways.” But he winces at some of the rhetoric around immigrants that’s voiced by the president and his supporters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even here, where it’s plain to the eye who does a lot of hard labor, Duran said, “some people seem to have the idea that illegal immigrants don’t do anything but crime.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Duran says he was stunned not long ago when a non-Hispanic woman spoke out at a public forum about allowing Dreamers to serve in the military to earn legal status and citizenship. “She came up to me and said if they want to get citizenship, they should serve for 20 years,” he said. “That just doesn’t make sense to me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Only Congress can change immigration law to open up a path that doesn’t exist now, a reality that runs contrary to misconceptions that there’s a line anyone wishing to immigrate can get into and just patiently wait a turn. A bipartisan bill introduced this past July, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/senate-bill/1615\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dream Act of 2017\u003c/a>, would create a years-long path to permanent residency and citizenship for eligible young people who’ve been here at least four years prior to enactment of such legislation. But that bill did not advance. Versions of the Dream Act in Congress go back to 2001.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beyond the details, though, some DACA recipients here say they’d just like to hear McCarthy defend them more vigorously — and act with speed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Porterville Dreamer Marco Reyes, 20, who works as a cashier and studies at Porterville College, a community college, said: “If I talked to McCarthy I’d ask him what he’s doing behind the scenes that nobody else is doing. He must be doing something. Are you going to surprise us later, hopefully with something that’s not bad? Because with politicians you never know.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>American Dream at Stake\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>As Republicans bore down on passing tax reform, GOP Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky told Fox News shortly before the holiday break that “we have plenty of time” to act on DACA to meet Trump’s March deadline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Galvan said: “I can’t wait.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even with nerves on edge, he’s got to attend classes at the local College of the Sequoias — in preparation for transfer to a four-year university — and report for as long as he can to his job tutoring 7th and 8th graders. The kids remind him of himself, when he was growing up poor but struggling to hold onto dreams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“After I got DACA, I went crazy,” Galvan said, explaining the sense of liberation it gave him. “I joined every club I could. I’ve really tried to do my best.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s been a long road. Galvan arrived from Mexico at five, and now he’s 20. As he was growing up, employers continued to hire people with little fear of getting penalized for “knowingly,” as the law says, hiring undocumented workers. Farm groups have long admitted that authentic-looking fake documents immigrants buy are part and parcel of how California’s factories in the fields stay open. Galvan’s dad has worked for the same agricultural employer for 15 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At an early December pro-DACA rally in Porterville, population 60,000, agitated locals channeled their anger about the treatment of undocumented workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These people live in the shadows and break their backs so that the people of America can eat!” Rosa Salmeron, a California State University, Fresno, student of social work shouted through a bullhorn. “We’re not shadows.

Her family members live and have businesses in McCarthy’s district, in Bakersfield.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These people are not representing us,” she told the crowd of several dozen.

Devin Nunes\u003c/a>, R-Tulare, of the 22nd District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Valadao, the son of Portuguese immigrants, is a dairy farmer. He doesn’t have the clout that McCarthy wields, but he’s ventured where many other Republicans won’t go. He was one of three Republicans in the House who co-sponsored a failed 2013 comprehensive immigration reform package that would put undocumented workers on an earned path to legal status, a green card.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Valadao is also one of two GOP congressmen from California who signed up to co-sponsor the Dream Act of 2017. The other co-sponsor is \u003ca href=\"https://denham.house.gov/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rep. Jeff Denham\u003c/a>, R-Turlock, whose 10th Congressional District also includes farm country to the north of Fresno.

Ryan declined.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As we approach the March deadline,” Valadao said in a statement, “it is more critical than ever that Congress immediately act to repair our broken immigration system and provide DACA recipients with the certainty they deserve.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.pewhispanic.org/interactives/mapping-the-latino-electorate-by-congressional-district/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pew Research Center\u003c/a>, almost 76 percent of Valadao’s district is Latino, and more than 39 percent of the population eligible to vote is Latino — the highest percentage among California’s 14 Republican districts in the House. Democrats hold the rest of California’s 53 House seats. Despite his pro-immigrant record, Democrats consider Valadao vulnerable in the next election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in Washington, D.C., McCarthy’s communications director, Matt Sparks, addressed complaints that his boss seemed indifferent to Dreamers and would not meet with constituents unhappy that he isn’t publicly elevating their cause.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sparks said pro-DACA rallies have been disruptive at district offices, and interrupted other constituents’ business. He said field staff in California attend town meetings regularly, and listen respectfully to complaints aired in that setting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He provided a statement from McCarthy: “President Trump was right to correct President Obama’s executive overreach by calling on Congress to find a solution for the children of illegal immigrants who came to this country through no fault of their own.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCarthy had previously told CNBC that “I don’t think this country is going to move these individuals out.” In the same interview, he acknowledged, to a point, his district’s dependence on immigrant workers. “I come from an agricultural community and I know you need a guest-worker program,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sparks said DACA isn’t the only immigration-related issue that constituents bring up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some district residents want to know about possible reforms Congress might initiate to broaden an existing guest-worker program for agriculture. Some want to talk about “chain migration,” a pejorative word coined by immigration-restriction activists to describe how immigrants, once citizens, can petition to sponsor certain relatives, including siblings and parents, to immigrate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When there’s consensus around an immigration reform plan,” Sparks said, “then I think something will happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sparks also said that McCarthy’s office was open to learning more about Luis Galvan’s work permit snafu to see if staff could help.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Agribusiness view\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Grimmway Farms in Kern County is the world’s largest grower of carrots.

He won a full scholarship to the University of California at Berkeley. “People didn’t care about my citizenship status when I was running track,” said Gonzalez, whose choice to attend Berkeley was featured in local news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s back in Bakersfield after graduation and is working at Youth 2 Leaders Education Foundation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He counsels parents and kids on available options for college scholarships. California legislators, over the years, have gradually passed legislation to first allow undocumented students to attend state colleges and pay in-state tuition rather than out-of-state fees. Later legislation was passed to allow students to receive state aid, not federal, to help pay for tuition. Private scholarships are out there as well. “There are people who think we don’t belong here while eating what my people are picking,” he said. He tells families to keep kids in school, no matter what happens to DACA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ironically, Gonzalez also participates in citizenship workshops to help immigrants with legal permanent residency prepare for testing. “You don’t know how much I wish I were in your position,” he jokes with aspiring citizens he helps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Luis Galvan, there’s no time to waste. He’s in a race to avoid having his DACA work permit expire. He’s talked to a lawyer, and to \u003ca href=\"https://missionassetfund.org/daca-renewal-scholarships/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mission Asset Fund\u003c/a>, a nonprofit group in San Francisco that provided him the scholarship to pay his renewal fee. Tara Robinson, the fund’s chief development officer, said the fund issued more than 5,000 checks to DACA recipients and the majority were cashed by Homeland Security. A small number weren’t accepted, which Robinson said could have been due to a Homeland Security error. When Galvan received word from the department to resubmit his application and a new payment, he bought a money order and Mission Asset Fund later reimbursed him. Then the rejection notice arrived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Honestly, the first few days after that I couldn’t sleep,” he said. “My mom was crying most of the time.

Judge William Alsup wrote that DACA recipients would suffer “irreparable harm” as they lose DACA protections. It’s unclear how federal officials will handle DACA renewal applications they rejected for failing to meet an Oct. 5 deadline. A Department of Justice statement said the department will defend the termination, calling DACA an “unlawful circumvention of Congress,” and a White House statement called on Congress to find a solution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Original Post:\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> Luis Galvan, 20, enjoyed a moment of triumph in late October when he boarded a plane for the first time and flew to Indianapolis to receive his Future Farmers of America degree, a prestigious certificate of achievement in the world of agriculture. Galvan was proud that all his grueling work with livestock and crops had paid off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But his euphoria was short-lived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Galvan got home he tore open an envelope waiting for him from the Department of Homeland Security. It was crushing news. He had submitted his application to renew a vital work permit for young immigrants known as “Dreamers” in plenty of time, along with a renewal fee. He received a notice back that there was a snafu over a $495 scholarship check he had submitted to pay the fee, and he promptly followed instructions to correct that. But now, this second, final notice told him his application was rejected for being late.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If Galvan can’t appeal the rejection, his work permit is set to expire Jan. 15. That would jeopardize his job tutoring junior high kids. It would affect his studies at college. It could even lead to him being deported.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What a bucket of cold water,” Galvan said, during a late-night interview in Porterville, the small California farm city where he grew up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Surrounded by a sea of orchards—including oranges now flooding U.S. markets—Porterville sits in California’s vast Central Valley. Considered one of the world’s most productive agribusiness regions, the valley depends on immigrant labor. And among those who represent the region in Congress are multiple Republican lawmakers, not least of them Rep. Kevin McCarthy, the powerful GOP majority leader whose district includes Porterville.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The work permit Galvan holds stems from his status as a recipient of \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/16/us/us-to-stop-deporting-some-illegal-immigrants.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DACA\u003c/a>, the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program whose fate rests, in no small part, in McCarthy’s hands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former President Barack Obama created DACA in 2012 to allow undocumented young people brought to the United States as children to stay legally, conditionally, until, Obama said he hoped, Congress came up with a solution to help them. Nicknamed Dreamers, this population has no sure path to legal residency, no matter how long they’ve been here or how much they accomplish. DACA has temporarily protected them from deportation and allowed them to obtain work permits. On Sept. 5 though, President Donald Trump announced that he was pulling the plug on DACA, arguing in a statement that Obama lacked authority to create the program and that policy should be “fair to American families, students, taxpayers and jobseekers.” Spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders added that unemployed Americans could possibly assume DACA recipients’ jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11642514\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 380px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11642514\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2.jpeg\" alt=\"Leydy Rangel, 22, and Eloisa Torres, 18, undocumented DACA recipients from Bakersfield, work up enthusiasm before trying to speak to House members in Washington, D.C. about a proposal to let them earn permanent legal status. \" width=\"380\" height=\"253\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2.jpeg 380w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2-160x107.jpeg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2-240x160.jpeg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/dreamers2-375x250.jpeg 375w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 380px) 100vw, 380px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Leydy Rangel, 22, and Eloisa Torres, 18, undocumented DACA recipients from Bakersfield, work up enthusiasm before trying to speak to House members in Washington, D.C. about a proposal to let them earn permanent legal status. \u003ccite>(Susan Ferriss/Center for Public Integrity)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Nearly 800,000 DACA recipients were suddenly plunged into uncertainty. Dreamers whose work permits were soon to expire were given a chance to apply, one last time, for two-year renewals by Oct. 5.

Despite his harsh rhetoric claiming Dreamers occupy Americans’ jobs, Trump too challenged Congress to come up with a legislative fix with “heart” to help Dreamers before the March deadline. A flurry of negotiations to pass such a bill collapsed just prior to the holiday break. GOP leaders now say Congress will take up DACA again this month, as part of broader debate over Trump’s demands for more border wall investments and cuts in family-based immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the politics are complicated, and they’re especially complicated here in California, home to at least a quarter of Dreamers. Most polling, from ABC to Fox News, shows that 60 to upwards of 80 percent of Americans think Dreamers should get a chance to stay and become legalized. In and around Porterville, Dreamers and their backers angrily question why McCarthy and fellow congressmen from California’s Central Valley aren’t vigorously pushing for a legislative fix — pronto — because so many Dreamers’ lives hang in the balance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCarthy declined an interview but in careful language has backed crafting a DACA fix as long as it’s coupled with more investments in border security measures. He said in a statement that he supported Trump’s position and that Congress is working on a “lawful solution to this problem.” It’s clear to everyone that McCarthy is not publicly leading a passionate charge to defend Dreamers. But the raw politics of both Washington and his district are hardly demanding that he do so — at least not right now. McCarthy won his last two elections with 75 percent and 69 percent of the vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>\u003cstrong>Differing perspectives\u003c/strong>\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>On the ground in McCarthy’s district, however, where Latinos are 41 percent of the total population and 27 percent of those eligible to vote, feelings can also get more than a little raw. The 52-year-old congressman, a lifelong Bakersfield resident, represents most of Tulare County, where Porterville is located, and the majority of California’s sprawling Kern County. Kern is peppered with oil rigs that produce more oil than Oklahoma. The county is also home to military-industrial-complex interests. Kern’s formidable agribusiness production, consisting of grapes, fruit trees, scores of other crops and milk, made it the number one farm county in the nation in 2016 at $7.19 billion in value. Tulare’s farm production value was $6.37 billion. The state, as a whole, is by far the nation’s biggest dairy-producing state, while also producing almost half the nation’s fruits, nuts and vegetables.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-11642517\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"897\" height=\"1100\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM.png 897w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-160x196.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-800x981.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-240x294.png 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-375x460.png 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/Screen-Shot-2018-01-17-at-2.48.45-PM-520x638.png 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 897px) 100vw, 897px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those stats form the basis for part of the passion here. After all, advocates for Dreamers argue California supplies a massive quantity of the food Americans consume. And agribusiness has acknowledged for a long time that immigrants, many of them undocumented and the parents of Dreamers, are essential to creating this bounty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve complained to McCarthy’s office: What about the Dreamers?” said John Duran, 67, a Republican in Porterville who is of Mexican descent but not an immigrant. “He needs to be doing more. But because he’s Republican he’s got to follow their agenda.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are no exact numbers, but McCarthy’s 23rd Congressional District is home to an estimated 7,900 young people who fit the profile of those eligible to have signed up for DACA, according to analysis of Census Bureau data by the University of Southern California. Adjacent GOP districts have as many or even more of these young people, who were eligible to sign up for DACA once they reached 16, if they had lived here since at least June 15, 2007.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Duran, a former correctional officer who’s active in local politics, said he’s generally pro-Trump and is strongly opposed to government “giveaways.” But he winces at some of the rhetoric around immigrants that’s voiced by the president and his supporters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even here, where it’s plain to the eye who does a lot of hard labor, Duran said, “some people seem to have the idea that illegal immigrants don’t do anything but crime.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Duran says he was stunned not long ago when a non-Hispanic woman spoke out at a public forum about allowing Dreamers to serve in the military to earn legal status and citizenship. “She came up to me and said if they want to get citizenship, they should serve for 20 years,” he said. “That just doesn’t make sense to me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Only Congress can change immigration law to open up a path that doesn’t exist now, a reality that runs contrary to misconceptions that there’s a line anyone wishing to immigrate can get into and just patiently wait a turn. A bipartisan bill introduced this past July, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/senate-bill/1615\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dream Act of 2017\u003c/a>, would create a years-long path to permanent residency and citizenship for eligible young people who’ve been here at least four years prior to enactment of such legislation. But that bill did not advance. Versions of the Dream Act in Congress go back to 2001.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beyond the details, though, some DACA recipients here say they’d just like to hear McCarthy defend them more vigorously — and act with speed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Porterville Dreamer Marco Reyes, 20, who works as a cashier and studies at Porterville College, a community college, said: “If I talked to McCarthy I’d ask him what he’s doing behind the scenes that nobody else is doing. He must be doing something. Are you going to surprise us later, hopefully with something that’s not bad? Because with politicians you never know.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>American Dream at Stake\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>As Republicans bore down on passing tax reform, GOP Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky told Fox News shortly before the holiday break that “we have plenty of time” to act on DACA to meet Trump’s March deadline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Galvan said: “I can’t wait.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even with nerves on edge, he’s got to attend classes at the local College of the Sequoias — in preparation for transfer to a four-year university — and report for as long as he can to his job tutoring 7th and 8th graders. The kids remind him of himself, when he was growing up poor but struggling to hold onto dreams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“After I got DACA, I went crazy,” Galvan said, explaining the sense of liberation it gave him. “I joined every club I could. I’ve really tried to do my best.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s been a long road. Galvan arrived from Mexico at five, and now he’s 20. As he was growing up, employers continued to hire people with little fear of getting penalized for “knowingly,” as the law says, hiring undocumented workers. Farm groups have long admitted that authentic-looking fake documents immigrants buy are part and parcel of how California’s factories in the fields stay open. Galvan’s dad has worked for the same agricultural employer for 15 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At an early December pro-DACA rally in Porterville, population 60,000, agitated locals channeled their anger about the treatment of undocumented workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These people live in the shadows and break their backs so that the people of America can eat!” Rosa Salmeron, a California State University, Fresno, student of social work shouted through a bullhorn. “We’re not shadows. We are people!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salmeron, 37, patted Galvan’s shoulder as he took the bullhorn at a rally in Veteran’s Park to tell the crowd about his dilemma.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salmeron, whose parents fled El Salvador during its civil war, is a naturalized U.S. citizen and grateful, she said, for the 1986 amnesty that Congress and President Ronald Reagan crafted that allowed her and her parents a chance to legalize and then go on to become citizens. Her family members live and have businesses in McCarthy’s district, in Bakersfield.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These people are not representing us,” she told the crowd of several dozen. She urged people to register to vote and oust local Republicans from Congress if they don’t do more for Dreamers. “The American Dream is at stake!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Kevin McCarthy is my representative and it upsets me that he won’t meet to talk about this,” added Daniel Peñaloza, 24, who runs an office in Porterville set up by the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights based in Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peñaloza has organized pro-DACA rallies not only outside McCarthy’s offices, but also at the offices of neighboring congressmen \u003ca href=\"https://valadao.house.gov/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rep. David Valadao\u003c/a>, R-Hanford, of the 21st District, and \u003ca href=\"https://nunes.house.gov/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rep. Devin Nunes\u003c/a>, R-Tulare, of the 22nd District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Valadao, the son of Portuguese immigrants, is a dairy farmer. He doesn’t have the clout that McCarthy wields, but he’s ventured where many other Republicans won’t go. He was one of three Republicans in the House who co-sponsored a failed 2013 comprehensive immigration reform package that would put undocumented workers on an earned path to legal status, a green card.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Valadao is also one of two GOP congressmen from California who signed up to co-sponsor the Dream Act of 2017. The other co-sponsor is \u003ca href=\"https://denham.house.gov/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rep. Jeff Denham\u003c/a>, R-Turlock, whose 10th Congressional District also includes farm country to the north of Fresno. Both also signed a Dec. 5 letter with \u003ca href=\"https://newhouse.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/34-house-republicans-urge-daca-fix-end-year\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">32 other GOP legislators\u003c/a> urging Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, R-Wisc., to put the Dream Act of 2017 on the floor for a vote. Ryan declined.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As we approach the March deadline,” Valadao said in a statement, “it is more critical than ever that Congress immediately act to repair our broken immigration system and provide DACA recipients with the certainty they deserve.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.pewhispanic.org/interactives/mapping-the-latino-electorate-by-congressional-district/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pew Research Center\u003c/a>, almost 76 percent of Valadao’s district is Latino, and more than 39 percent of the population eligible to vote is Latino — the highest percentage among California’s 14 Republican districts in the House. Democrats hold the rest of California’s 53 House seats. Despite his pro-immigrant record, Democrats consider Valadao vulnerable in the next election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in Washington, D.C., McCarthy’s communications director, Matt Sparks, addressed complaints that his boss seemed indifferent to Dreamers and would not meet with constituents unhappy that he isn’t publicly elevating their cause.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sparks said pro-DACA rallies have been disruptive at district offices, and interrupted other constituents’ business. He said field staff in California attend town meetings regularly, and listen respectfully to complaints aired in that setting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He provided a statement from McCarthy: “President Trump was right to correct President Obama’s executive overreach by calling on Congress to find a solution for the children of illegal immigrants who came to this country through no fault of their own.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCarthy had previously told CNBC that “I don’t think this country is going to move these individuals out.” In the same interview, he acknowledged, to a point, his district’s dependence on immigrant workers. “I come from an agricultural community and I know you need a guest-worker program,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sparks said DACA isn’t the only immigration-related issue that constituents bring up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some district residents want to know about possible reforms Congress might initiate to broaden an existing guest-worker program for agriculture. Some want to talk about “chain migration,” a pejorative word coined by immigration-restriction activists to describe how immigrants, once citizens, can petition to sponsor certain relatives, including siblings and parents, to immigrate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When there’s consensus around an immigration reform plan,” Sparks said, “then I think something will happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sparks also said that McCarthy’s office was open to learning more about Luis Galvan’s work permit snafu to see if staff could help.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Agribusiness view\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Grimmway Farms in Kern County is the world’s largest grower of carrots.

He won a full scholarship to the University of California at Berkeley. “People didn’t care about my citizenship status when I was running track,” said Gonzalez, whose choice to attend Berkeley was featured in local news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s back in Bakersfield after graduation and is working at Youth 2 Leaders Education Foundation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He counsels parents and kids on available options for college scholarships. California legislators, over the years, have gradually passed legislation to first allow undocumented students to attend state colleges and pay in-state tuition rather than out-of-state fees. Later legislation was passed to allow students to receive state aid, not federal, to help pay for tuition. Private scholarships are out there as well. “There are people who think we don’t belong here while eating what my people are picking,” he said. He tells families to keep kids in school, no matter what happens to DACA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ironically, Gonzalez also participates in citizenship workshops to help immigrants with legal permanent residency prepare for testing. “You don’t know how much I wish I were in your position,” he jokes with aspiring citizens he helps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Luis Galvan, there’s no time to waste.

Tara Robinson, the fund’s chief development officer, said the fund issued more than 5,000 checks to DACA recipients and the majority were cashed by Homeland Security. A small number weren’t accepted, which Robinson said could have been due to a Homeland Security error. When Galvan received word from the department to resubmit his application and a new payment, he bought a money order and Mission Asset Fund later reimbursed him.

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cem>Updated Wednesday, 4:35 p.m.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A federal judge grilled an attorney for the U.S. Department of Justice on Wednesday over the Trump administration's justification for ending a program protecting some young immigrants from deportation, saying many people had come to rely on it and faced a \"real\" and \"palpable\" hardship from its loss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. District Judge William Alsup said former President Barack Obama's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy gave people the chance to work and made them \"contributing, taxpaying members of the economy.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Isn't that a huge thing to have so many people being a legitimate part of the economy?\" the judge said at a court hearing in San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alsup is considering five lawsuits seeking to block President Trump from rescinding DACA, which has protected about 800,000 people who were brought to the U.S. illegally as children or came with families who overstayed visas. Plaintiffs -- including the state of California -- have asked the judge to halt changes to the program while the case proceeds. Alsup is also considering a government request to dismiss the suits. He did not immediately issue a ruling Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jeffrey Davidson, an attorney representing the governing board of the University of California school system, said people took out loans, enrolled in school and even made decisions about whether to get married and start families on the basis of DACA and now face \"horrific\" consequences from the loss of the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The government considered none of this at all when they decided to rescind DACA,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alsup also had tough questions for Davidson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Isn't it true that in our country -- a democracy -- that elections have consequences?\" Alsup asked. Davidson acknowledged that the Trump administration could end the program, but, he said, it must be done in a more methodical way, with documentation showing that results of the change and alternatives had been considered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alsup questioned whether the administration had conducted a thorough review before ending the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brad Rosenberg, a Justice Department attorney, said the administration considered the effects of ending DACA and decided to phase it out over time instead of cutting it immediately.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DACA recipients will be allowed to stay in the U.S. for the remainder of their two-year authorizations. Any recipient whose status was due to expire within six months also got a month to apply for another two-year term.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rosenberg said DACA was always a temporary measure and never extended any guarantees about the benefits it conferred.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Perhaps it is worthwhile for Congress to consider the benefits of providing some form of relief to these individuals,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The department said in court documents that DACA was facing the possibility of an abrupt end by court order, but Alsup was critical of that argument.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The program includes hundreds of thousands of college-age students commonly referred to as \"Dreamers,\" based on never-passed proposals in Congress called the DREAM Act that would have provided similar protections for young immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fresno resident Deidi Sanchez identified herself as a Dreamer outside the hearing Wednesday. She and other self-identified dreamers who attended the hearing said they felt they were being used as leverage in a congressional debate over immigration enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think it's just a political game that they're playing and putting our lives and our futures at risk,\" Sanchez said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said she had earned bachelor's and master's degrees, started a business and recently bought a home. She works for the Fresno County superintendent of schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I feel like I haven't done anything but contribute positive things to the economy,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alsup asked several times about the loss of work authorization for DACA recipients if the program ends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Those work authorizations are an important thing,\" he told Department of Justice attorneys. \"You're going to throw hundreds of thousands of people into the unemployment line, and they can't even get in the unemployment line.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced in September that DACA would be phased out, saying Obama had exceeded his authority when he implemented it in 2012.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The move sparked a flurry of lawsuits in different federal courts across the country, including one in New York filed by 15 states and the District of Columbia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alsup is considering five different lawsuits, including one brought by California and three other states and another by the governing board of the University of California school system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Today we continued our work in court to make sure Dreamers can continue to contribute to America,\" California Attorney General Xavier Becerra said in a statement after the hearing. \"We will fight for them with every tool we have.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alsup had ordered the Trump administration to turn over all emails, letters and other documents it considered in its decision to end DACA, but the U.S. Supreme Court put that order on hold earlier in December.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post contains reporting from the Associated Press.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Plaintiffs -- including the state of California -- have asked the judge to halt changes to the program while the case proceeds. Alsup is also considering a government request to dismiss the suits.

Davidson acknowledged that the Trump administration could end the program, but, he said, it must be done in a more methodical way, with documentation showing that results of the change and alternatives had been considered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alsup questioned whether the administration had conducted a thorough review before ending the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brad Rosenberg, a Justice Department attorney, said the administration considered the effects of ending DACA and decided to phase it out over time instead of cutting it immediately.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DACA recipients will be allowed to stay in the U.S. for the remainder of their two-year authorizations. Any recipient whose status was due to expire within six months also got a month to apply for another two-year term.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rosenberg said DACA was always a temporary measure and never extended any guarantees about the benefits it conferred.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Perhaps it is worthwhile for Congress to consider the benefits of providing some form of relief to these individuals,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The department said in court documents that DACA was facing the possibility of an abrupt end by court order, but Alsup was critical of that argument.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The program includes hundreds of thousands of college-age students commonly referred to as \"Dreamers,\" based on never-passed proposals in Congress called the DREAM Act that would have provided similar protections for young immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fresno resident Deidi Sanchez identified herself as a Dreamer outside the hearing Wednesday. She and other self-identified dreamers who attended the hearing said they felt they were being used as leverage in a congressional debate over immigration enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think it's just a political game that they're playing and putting our lives and our futures at risk,\" Sanchez said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said she had earned bachelor's and master's degrees, started a business and recently bought a home. She works for the Fresno County superintendent of schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I feel like I haven't done anything but contribute positive things to the economy,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alsup asked several times about the loss of work authorization for DACA recipients if the program ends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Those work authorizations are an important thing,\" he told Department of Justice attorneys. \"You're going to throw hundreds of thousands of people into the unemployment line, and they can't even get in the unemployment line.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced in September that DACA would be phased out, saying Obama had exceeded his authority when he implemented it in 2012.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The move sparked a flurry of lawsuits in different federal courts across the country, including one in New York filed by 15 states and the District of Columbia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alsup is considering five different lawsuits, including one brought by California and three other states and another by the governing board of the University of California school system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Today we continued our work in court to make sure Dreamers can continue to contribute to America,\" California Attorney General Xavier Becerra said in a statement after the hearing. \"We will fight for them with every tool we have.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alsup had ordered the Trump administration to turn over all emails, letters and other documents it considered in its decision to end DACA, but the U.S. Supreme Court put that order on hold earlier in December.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post contains reporting from the Associated Press.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Thursday is the deadline for thousands of current DACA recipients to renew their status for what could be the last time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's touched off a scramble across the country. The Department of Homeland Security says more than 100,000 DACA recipients have applied to renew their temporary two-year work permits ahead of the deadline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many have gotten help from pop-up legal clinics across the country, including a series of recent events hosted by the City University of New York. In a classroom in midtown Manhattan, lawyers from CUNY's Citizenship Now! project and volunteers from the local legal community helped DACA recipients fill out their renewal applications. After they finished the applications, representatives from a local nonprofit called the New Economy Project were waiting to cut checks covering the $495 application fee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That was a big relief for Achraf Jellal, who first signed up for DACA in 2013.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It gave me the ability to work, go to school, drive,\" Jellal said. \"It's basically everything. Without it, I don't know what I would have done.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jellal moved to New York when he was 4 with his parents, who are Moroccan. He's studying computer science at CUNY's LaGuardia Community College in Queens, where he lives. But Jellal knows that without DACA, he might have to leave the U.S. to work in his field.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I can definitely work back in Morocco with an American degree in computer science,\" Jellal said. \"But I've never been there. I don't know any of my family, actually.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DACA protections will begin expiring in March — unless Congress reaches an agreement to extend them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It would be a terribly sad thing for these people, who are making so much progress in their careers, in their lives,\" said Allan Wernick, director of CUNY Citizenship Now! project. \"So I don't see it happening, because I think that political pressure and the political support for these DACA people is going to protect them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's bipartisan support for extending protections for Dreamers. But there are some sticking points as well. One is that immigration hard-liners say any deal has to include some funding for President Trump's border wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republican Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa thinks there's room for compromise on that. \"Any potential DACA agreement has to include robust border security,\" Grassley said Tuesday at a hearing of the Senate Judiciary Committee. \"And by that, I don't mean a wall.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But immigrant rights advocates, and some Democrats, want to see new protections for Dreamers without extra border spending or other conditions attached.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While all this plays out in Washington, Jenifer Guzman is just trying to get through college. She's a junior from Sunset Park, Brooklyn, who's studying psychology and political science at CUNY's Hunter College in Manhattan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My main goal is graduating on time,\" Guzman said, \"because education is something no one can take from me. That's my plan for now. I don't know what comes after that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What Guzman does know is that her DACA benefits will expire in summer of 2019 — just a few weeks after she's scheduled to graduate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

Thursday is the deadline for thousands of current DACA recipients to renew their status for what could be the last time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's touched off a scramble across the country. The Department of Homeland Security says more than 100,000 DACA recipients have applied to renew their temporary two-year work permits ahead of the deadline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many have gotten help from pop-up legal clinics across the country, including a series of recent events hosted by the City University of New York. In a classroom in midtown Manhattan, lawyers from CUNY's Citizenship Now! project and volunteers from the local legal community helped DACA recipients fill out their renewal applications. After they finished the applications, representatives from a local nonprofit called the New Economy Project were waiting to cut checks covering the $495 application fee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That was a big relief for Achraf Jellal, who first signed up for DACA in 2013.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Without it, I don't know what I would have done.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jellal moved to New York when he was 4 with his parents, who are Moroccan. He's studying computer science at CUNY's LaGuardia Community College in Queens, where he lives. But Jellal knows that without DACA, he might have to leave the U.S. to work in his field.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I can definitely work back in Morocco with an American degree in computer science,\" Jellal said. \"But I've never been there. I don't know any of my family, actually.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DACA protections will begin expiring in March — unless Congress reaches an agreement to extend them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It would be a terribly sad thing for these people, who are making so much progress in their careers, in their lives,\" said Allan Wernick, director of CUNY Citizenship Now! project. \"So I don't see it happening, because I think that political pressure and the political support for these DACA people is going to protect them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's bipartisan support for extending protections for Dreamers. But there are some sticking points as well. One is that immigration hard-liners say any deal has to include some funding for President Trump's border wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republican Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa thinks there's room for compromise on that. \"Any potential DACA agreement has to include robust border security,\" Grassley said Tuesday at a hearing of the Senate Judiciary Committee. \"And by that, I don't mean a wall.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But immigrant rights advocates, and some Democrats, want to see new protections for Dreamers without extra border spending or other conditions attached.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While all this plays out in Washington, Jenifer Guzman is just trying to get through college. She's a junior from Sunset Park, Brooklyn, who's studying psychology and political science at CUNY's Hunter College in Manhattan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My main goal is graduating on time,\" Guzman said, \"because education is something no one can take from me. That's my plan for now. I don't know what comes after that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What Guzman does know is that her DACA benefits will expire in summer of 2019 — just a few weeks after she's scheduled to graduate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.
