REMINDER: Our survey is still live! Your responses will help us work to protect #DACA and fight for permanent protections.

[Diana Pliego @dianappliego]

I want to one day stop making speeches about how my community deserves full inclusion in this country. #DACA is not enough. I want Congress to recognize that our #HomeIsHere and pass legislation that gives us permanent protection and a pathway to citizenship. It's overdue.

[National Immigration Law Center @NILC]

👏Powerful call to action from @dianappliego:

"Our community deserves stability in the place that we call home. We deserve full inclusion & not arbitrary cut-off dates that leave out our youngest community members. We deserve citizenship & access to basic human rights."

NILC Policy Associate @dianappliego & #DACA recipients from across the country just met with @POTUS to share why we urgently need a pathway to citizenship for ALL.

Thank you, President Biden for your strong commitment to a permanent solution. Now, Congress must act.

#WeAreHome

[Diana Pliego @dianappliego]

Just advocated for my community with friends at @CAPimmigration, @FWDus & @CASAforall. Told @POTUS we need to a pathway to citizenship this year in the reconciliation package. #WeAreHome

[Diana Pliego @dianappliego]

With some incredible DACA advocates waiting to meet @POTUS. #WeAreHome @CASAforall @FWDus @CAPimmigration

On Thursday, we'll be talking to immigration activist @dianappliego and @FaithPublicLife's Sara Benitez to discuss what strides need to be made under the new administration. Make sure you don't miss this! Check the link in my bio to follow on the platform of your choice.

🎉 VICTORY! A Brooklyn court ruled in our case with @MaketheRoadNY and @WIRACYls on DACA that Chad Wolf was not lawfully serving, and his memo was not lawfully issued. We are still reading the opinion and will provide more details soon.

[Diana Pliego @dianappliego]

Thank you to everyone who gave it their absolute all to make this happen. I know this will likely be challenged, but I continue to believe justice will prevail.

[Diana Pliego @dianappliego]

I have no words besides thank you God!

JOE BIDEN DEFEATS PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP

The Associated Press declares Joe Biden the winner of a grueling campaign for the American presidency. He will lead a polarized nation through a historic collision of health, economic and social crises.

DACA changed my life by allowing me to get a college education in the place I call home. Every door opened since would not have been possible without DACA. Grateful to my @NILC family & the countless others fighting this fight every day. #HomeIsHere

[National Immigration Law Center @NILC]

.@dianappliego is a wonderful work colleague, a dear friend, and an impassioned, courageous activist. We are so moved by her declaration in this NEW post on #TheTorch that her #HomeIsHere. We will never stop fighting alongside her. https://t.co/EMpWdcoqpY
