Deferred Action Intake-Day pt. 2
Posted by Sierra
So far I have completed six deferred action applications, which I think will beat my record of ten because there are four hours left before the intake is over. Today is going a bit slow, but I think it will pick up around two or three o’clock. I’m excited! These DREAMers are taking the next step towards the rest of their lives. I wonder how many applications will be completed today? So far we have complete 370 applications over the last two intake-days, however, there are only three of us filling out the applications today. Nevertheless, we’re getting things done and it feels great! If you qualify for deferred action please do not wait to apply. Go to the next intake-day near you or hire a lawyer. Visit www.iuya.org if you live in Indiana for more information.

Many people have the idea that immigration is a bad thing, whether it’s illegal or not, but the truth is, immigration is generally good. People probably believe that it is bad because they don’t quite understand what comes out of it. Here are a few facts concerning immigration:

It’s TIME to make this DREAM a reality!
Mark your calenders because history has been made! How does it feel to be a part of such a great advancement?
Yesterday marked the first day of Deferred Action, which prevents DREAMers from being deported. President Obama signed it after a series of hunger strikes & protests began in his campaign offices. This is what happens when DREAMers stick together; They can achieve anything.
