And the most surprising is that he is a Republican.

Nice, lol. I know a few Republicans who have (very surprisingly) been supportive of DACA once you explain what it entails. Plus, it probably helps if you know the person and you tell them about your experiences on a one-to-one basis. It is kind of a risk though, you never know if they'll try and report you afterwards. (I mean, the Trump team already has access to our files so at this point whatever).

I think the only one that should really be made at least somewhat aware of your situation is the HR manager (if there even is one). For the most part, HR don't understand DACA. Just have to explain that you're authorized
