Nearly a million Dreamers across the country have come out of the shadows because of the promise that DACA represented, including more than 7,000 from New Mexico.
These are some of our brightest students and veterans who came forward based on the promise that our government would not deport them and provided personal information about themselves and their families.
However, Dreamers across the country continue to face a harsh uncertainty about their future and are worried that the information they shared will be used against them. To do this would be an extraordinary and unprecedented breach of trust by our government.
That's why I introduced legislation to safeguard Dreamers’ private information. We must protect the personal information DACA applicants entrusted with the government and ensure that they are not unfairly targeted by President Trump for deportation. heinrich.senate.gov/press-releases…
