9 What is the Immigrant Youth Movement? It is a youth led movement that EMPOWERS undocumented people to fight for their rights and freedom in the United States. They led a campaign (early 2000s) to pass a federal policy called the DREAM ACT that would have granted full citizenship status to children of migrant parents upon the completion of higher education or service in the US Military. DREAM ACT: Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors Act

10 All power to the students! Although the federal DREAM ACT policy did not pass, their tactics pressured the Obama administration to create a compromise policy called DACA Other states created local se policies including Tho cted A te pro r DAC s a e California. und nown s k r are eame Dr It was because of the DREAMERS that we had DACA

11 Let s take a look at the reality of being a dreamer in the United States and a brief history of the immigrant youth movement.

12 So what was Daca? (deferred action for childhood arrivals) On June 15, 2012, former President Obama announced that young immigrants who entered the country without authorization before the age of 16 can qualify for an immigration relief benefit known as "Deferred Action". An applicant who is granted deferred action will not be deported and qualifies for a work permit renewable every two years.

13 Requirements (Must meet all): A lot of Requirements 1. Were under the age of 31 as of June 15, 2012; 2. Came to the US before reaching your 16th birthday; 3. Have continuously resided in the US since June 15, 2007, up to the present time; 4. Were physically present in the US on June 15, 2012, and at the time of making your request for consideration of deferred action with USCIS; 5. Entered without inspection before June 15, 2012, or your lawful immigration status expired as of June 15, 2012; 6.

14 Undocumented and Unafraid Slogan for the new Immigrant Youth Movement as they are coming OUT OF THE SHADOWS to advocating for change in immigration policy, organizing, and building a new civil rights movement.

15 How did the DREAMERS win? They used various non-violent TACTICS to gain policy wins DEMONSTRATIONS Lobbying to local politicians civil disobedience in the halls of congress Dream graduations Coming out of the Shadows Undocumented and Unafraid slogan Undocumented t-shirts Dream Summer Dream University

16 Other tactics Processions Psychological Intervention Trail of Dreams from Florida to DC DREAM freedom rides from LA to DC The McCain Five The Wilshire Nine Hunger Strike: Outside of the Los Angeles office of US Senator Dianne Feinstein

21 Why Butterflies? A symbol in the movement is the Mexican monarch butterfly. They migrate every year from Canada to Mexico. Si Las Mariposas No Necesitan Papeles, Why Should We?

22 Let us act and put pressure on our local representatives Hello, My name is, and I am one of your constituents. I am calling to express my discontent with the White House s decision to end DACA and ask Senator/Representative to support legislative action that will protect immigrants affected by the termination of DACA. Eight hundred thousand lives are affected because of the president s decision to end DACA, and now it is time for Congress to pass a law that would provide a pathway to citizenship for this group of immigrants. Do you Senator/Representative currently support the Dream Act or Hope Act? Sincerely,
