In over 500 congregations, people from all faiths and from across the theological and political spectrum gathered to hear the stories of DREAM students, to pray for their welfare and for their hopes to become U.S. citizens to become true, and to further educate themselves and their communities about the DREAM Act and the need for it to become law. In many of the 500 services, DREAM Act students gave testimony to their struggle of growing up in the United States, succeeding in their schools and communities, but yet, not being allowed to be fully recognized for their contributions. Many congregants heard, through the stories of DREAM students, the stories of their grandparents and their own families’ immigrant journeys. A number of church leaders were moved to abandon their timidity of speaking about a “controversial” issue and they pledged to speak out and continue to build stronger relationships with immigrant communities. DREAM Sabbath was a time when faith and action came together; where worship and political advocacy was a vibrant means of religious expression. The power of DREAM Sabbath was not just limited to the over 500 services that happened during the fall of 2012 though. The power of DREAM Sabbath is still developing as the relationships between congregations and DREAM Act students that are deepened, the thousands of congregants who are educated and will take action to show their support, and the teams of faith communities working together to ensure that their members of congress stand as champions of immigrants rights to ensure that the DREAM Act is passed.

Being stripped all their hard work, education, friends, and dreams, often through a decision that someone else made when they were too young to understand. This is the story of many children in this country who are undocumented. The United Methodist Church is part of the Interfaith Immigration Coalition, a group of more than thirty national organizations representing Jewish, Protestant, Catholic, and Islamic faith communities. The Coalition is sponsoring Dream Sabbath, an opportunity for people of faith around the country to express support for the thousands of young people who were brought to this country as infants or children and who, though not documented residents, have nevertheless worked hard to succeed in school and to be good citizens of their communities. The Dream Act is a proposed federal law that would make it possible for these young people to earn legal status if they complete high school or get a GED and then enroll in college or university or serve in our Armed Forces. You may have seen some of these young people, known as the Dreamers, when they held peaceful vigil outside the federal courthouse here in Birmingham and attended the August 24 hearing on the bishops’ challenge to Alabama’s new immigration law, HB 56. They are an impressive group of teenagers who are taking a risk by speaking out publicly and telling their stories, stories that sound very much like those of any teenager raised to believe in “the American Dream.” However your congregation may feel about Alabama’s new law or about our immigration laws generally, Dream Sabbath is an opportunity for us to share in prayer and worship what it means to respond to these young people through our faith. Dream Sabbath events can take place anytime, but I’m asking you to schedule a time between now and October 16 for your congregation to participate in this interfaith initiative. It may be through a themed worship service or an element of worship – a sermon, a story, a prayer, a litany, a meditation, a bulletin insert. The Interfaith Immigration Coalition has prepared a number of materials you can use in planning your service. You can find them on the Coalition website, http://www.interfaithimmigration.org If you would like to have one of our local Dreamers come to your service to share their own stories, let me know. 3 ARIZONA United Methodist, Foreman University Lutheran Church and Lutheran Campus Ministry, Tempe Desert Southwest Conference Board of Church and Society, Scottsdale St. Francis in the Foothills United Methodist Church, Tucson Desert Mission United Methodist Church, Scottsdale Creighton United Methodist Church, Phoenix Pioneer UM Fellowship, Phoenix Mission Bell United Methodist Church, Glendale Parker United Methodist Church, Parker South Mountain Community Church, Phoenix Dayspring United Methodist Church, Tempe Desert Chapel United Methodist Church, Apache Junction Spirit Song United Methodist Foundation, Peoria St. Mark’s United Methodist Church, Tucson Sun Lakes United Methodist Church, Sun Lakes St. John’s United Methodist Church, Kingman Shepherd of the Hills United Methodist Church, Sun City West Justa Center, Phoenix Living Water United Methodist Foundation, Gilbert St. Mark’s, Tucson Valley Unitarian Universalist Congregation, Chandler Trinity Cathedral, Phoenix Granit Peak Unitarian Universalist Congregation, Prescott First United Methodist Church, Glendale Primera Iglesia, Phoenix Flagstaff Federated Community Church, Flagstaff Wesley United Methodist Church, Phoenix Grace United Methodist Church, Phoenix UMW Desert Southwest Conference North District, Williams Camp Verde United Methodist Church, Camp Verde Calvary, Phoenix Albright United Methodist Church, Phoenix Hope United Methodist Church of Tucson Arizona, Tucson Wilcox United Methodist Church, Wilcox Lakeview United Methodist Church, Sun City Cross Roads United Methodist Church, Sun City Catalina, Tucson Faith United Methodist Church, Phoenix First United Methodist of Mesa, Mesa St. Paul’s United Methodist Church, Globe Aldersgate United Methodist Church, Phoenix Claypool United Methodist Church, Claypool Phoenix Native American Fellowship, Phoenix First United Methodist Church, Tempe 4 Wesley Foundation of Tucson, Tempe Ajo Federated Church, Ajo United Methodist Women, Scottsdale Prescott United Methodist Church, Prescott Cross in the Desert, Phoenix Journey Church, Maricopa Dove of the Desert, Glendale Trinity United Methodist Church, Phoenix Asbury United Methodist Church, Phoenix United Christian Ministry at NAU, Flagstaff Trinity Heights United Methodist Church, Flagstaff Sun Lakes United Methodist Church, Sun Lakes Desert Southwest Conference, Phoenix Mountain View United Methodist Church, Cottonwood Green Valley Community Church, Green Valley Sierra Vista United Methodist Church, Sierra Vista Lakeview United Methodist Church, Sun City Trinity United Methodist Church, Bisbee Epworth United Methodist Church, Phoenix Payson United Methodist Church, Payson Red Mountain United Methodist Church, Mesa Interfaith Fellowship, Sedona First United Methodist Church, Safford Over the past 10 years efforts have been made in statehouses and Congress to find a way to support some of the most gifted and capable young people in our country who don’t have the necessary documentation to remain in this country. These young people came into this country as infants or small children. They have only known the United States as their home. As a member of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, which recognizes our church comes from immigrant roots and out of the biblical mandate to love our neighbor as ourselves, I stand with many in supporting the DREAM Act. This Act welcomes the stranger while offering compassion to young adults, who if given a chance to an earned pathway to citizenship would only add value to this country. They would pay taxes, be eligible to serve in our military, and bolster our struggling professional middle class. Bishop Stephen S.

    EDUCATIONAL RESOURCE BINDER College Access for Undocumented Students in California INTRODUCTION All of us should have the freedom to pursue our dreams without constraint. When everyone is allowed to realize their full potential, we all benefit. However, every year, too many undocumented young people miss key opportunities to enter and succeed in higher education due to a lack of accurate information. The Educational Resource Binder: College Access for Undocumented Students in California has been created by Immigrants Rising to ensure undocumented students and the educators who serve them can easily access accurate and up-to-date information about attending college, including the CA Dream Act, AB 540/SB 68 & Residency, Scholarships That Don’t Require Proof of Citizenship, Institutional Practices, the Sanctuary School and Safe Zone Movement and more! DEFINING UNDOCUMENTED UNDOCUMENTED Deferred Entered with Entered Action for Currently in Legal Status Vulnerable without Childhood the Process but Immigrants Inspection Arrivals of Legalizing Overstayed (DACA) WHO ARE INCLUDED IN THE TERM “UNDOCUMENTED”? We define the term “undocumented” broadly to include all immigrants who reside in the United States without legal status. This includes individuals who: 1. Entered without Inspection (also known as “EWI”) Individuals who entered the United States without presenting themselves for inspection at an official checkpoint to obtain permission to enter the country (e.g. crossing the border without inspection). 2. Entered with Legal Status but Overstayed Individuals who entered the United States with legal status (e.g. student visa) and then remained in the country after their ‘duration of status’ date (found on their I-94) or after their visa expired.

  • The American DREAM: DACA, Dreamers, and Comprehensive Immigration Reform
    The American DREAM: DACA, DREAMers, and Comprehensive Immigration Reform Heather Fathali* “Immigration policy shapes the destiny of the Nation . The his- tory of the United States is in part made of the stories, talents, and lasting contributions of those who crossed oceans and deserts to come here.” –Justice Anthony Kennedy, Arizona v. United States1 “A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream to- gether is reality.” –John Lennon2 I. INTRODUCTION In 2011, Maria Gomez earned her master’s degree in architecture and urban design.3 This is an outstanding achievement for any student. For Maria, it was the result of the same hard work and diligence she had practiced since her days as a middle-school honor student, when she first knew that she wanted to become an architect. In high school, Maria excelled in community service, extracurricu- lar, and school leadership activities.4 She graduated tenth in her class with a 3.9 GPA and was accepted by every college to which she applied.5 * J.D. Candidate, Seattle University School of Law, 2014; B.A., Cultural Anthropology, Western Washington University, 2006. My appreciation to Professor Won Kidane and my colleagues at Seat- tle University Law Review for your assistance in the development of this Comment. To husband and my family: I thank you so much for your encouragement, support, and love. 1. Arizona v. United States, 132 S. Ct. 2492, 2510 (2012). 2.

  • In Their VOICES Undocumented in California Public Colleges and Universities INTRODUCTION
    In Their VOICES Undocumented in California Public Colleges and Universities INTRODUCTION California has a proud history of welcoming the immigrant and recognizing the tremendous value immigrants bring to the fabric of our state and the inextricable ties that bind our collective future. College opportunity is key to ensuring that California can meet its economic goals, maintain its global standing, and keep up with technological advances. As California’s economy becomes increasingly reliant on a better-educated workforce and further connected to a global marketplace for its services and products, immigrant students are poised to make major contributions to future growth. Nearly 27 percent (three million) of the United States’ undocumented immigrants reside in California.1 Among this diverse population of undocumented immigrants, however, few adults have a college degree. Conservative estimates find that between 64,000 and 86,000 undocumented students are enrolled in California’s public higher education systems.2 Losing, or even underutilizing, these talented students poses a threat to our state’s workforce and economy when you consider California needs an additional 1.65 million college-educated workers by 2030.3 In September of 2017, the Trump Administration announced that it was removing protections for immigrants by rescinding the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program and ordered the Department of Homeland Security to stop accepting new or renewal applications. Numerous lawsuits ensued, and several courts have halted the Administration’s attempts to end DACA.4 As a result, current DACA holders and potential DACA recipients are in a state of limbo, unsure of their status and what the future will hold.

  • An Analysis of the DACA Program Master Thesis by Anniek Van Keeken
    The Integration of Mexican Undocumented Students in American Society: An Analysis of the DACA Program Master Thesis by Anniek van Keeken 1 July 2015 Anniek van Keeken 900507-425-090, [email protected] Wageningen University - MSc International Development Studies Communication, Technology, and Policy. Thesis code: LAW 80433 www.wageningenur.nl Supervisor: Dr. Michiel Köhne Photo on the cover: Volunteers of the NGO Border Angels go into the desert to place water jugs to limit the deaths of immigrants crossing the border illegally (approximately 1,000 deaths of dehydration each year). Source: author. 2 Abstract ________ This research demonstrates the significance of immigration status in the integration processes of undocumented Mexican students with regards to their access to institutions and (social) services, belonging, and identity (formation), arguing that the DACA program influences predominantly the economic integration of students while lacking the ability for social/cultural and identity integration of its participants. This DACA program stands for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals and grants eligible students a Social Security Number through which they are able to – among others – apply for legal employment, financial aid, and a drivers’ license. The program is temporary in that eligibility is only for two years (after which participants have to apply again) and it is yet unknown if a next presidential administration will continue this program put in place by President Barack Obama. A qualitative study was conducted within the undocumented Mexican student community of San Diego, California to explore their integration experiences. The research draws on participant observation and interviews with both DACA participants and undocumented students.
