Nadeau Condemns Trump DACA Decision – Office of Councilmember Brianne K. Nadeau

“The District has a beautiful history of welcoming immigrants and supporting each other as a community. Immigrants and Dreamers are our neighbors, friends, and family. I have personally met with DACA families and understand how important this program is in stabilizing communities. President Trump’s values are not our values and I strongly condemn his decision to end the program. I will do everything I can to continue supporting immigrants in the District and preserve our status as a sanctuary city.”

Nadeau condena la decisión de Trump de eliminar DACA

Washington – Hoy, la Concejal de la Zona 1 en DC, Brianne Nadeau, publicó la siguiente declaración en respuesta a la decisión del gobierno de Trump de poner fin a la protección para los Soñadores bajo el programa Acción Diferida para los Llegados de la Infancia (DACA),

“El Distrito tiene una hermosa historia de anfitrión de inmigrantes y de apoyo mutuo como una sola comunidad. Los inmigrantes y soñadores son nuestros vecinos, amigos y familia. Me he reunido personalmente con las familias de DACA y entiendo la importancia de este programa para estabilizar a las comunidades. Los valores del Presidente Trump no son nuestros valores y condeno enérgicamente su decisión de poner fin al programa. Haré todo lo que pueda para seguir apoyando a los inmigrantes en el distrito y preservar nuestra condición de ciudad santuario.”
