Amy Kennedy Responds to Supreme Court Ruling on DACA

Brigantine, NJ — Today, Amy Kennedy, candidate for New Jersey’s second congressional district, put out the following statement in response to the Supreme Court ruling in favor of DACA.

“Today we celebrate the Supreme Court’s decision and the future of our Dreamers. The Trump administration has been relentlessly attacking the immigrant community for years, and our Dreamers have been living in constant fear. This decision is a symbol of the values of our nation to uplift our immigrant communities and protect their place in the U.S. It also makes clear that we are a nation of laws, which President Trump has time and again broken in his relentless efforts to tear our communities apart. Now it’s time to finally pass the Dream and Promise Act to permanently protect Dreamers. I’m committed to continuing to fight for the protections our immigrant community needs and to uphold the ideals that this nation was founded on.”
