This. A Pardon is the one thing Obama can do before he leaves office. It would open up a lot of doors for dreamers.

He saw himself unable to continue his education. He wanted to help his mother. His story breaks my heart because it reflects how serious the situation is. Unfortunately, he didn't get to see deffered action take place. There is also another old story about a guy that was in removal procedings, and he was scared. The thought of going to another country terrified him. He committed suicide. I feel like there should be more publicity on these impacts. Another article here stated that emergency counseling was administered at colleges or schools. Some of us dreamers are shaken by this threat. http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/1119100 Here is the url for Joaquins story from 2011. I'm typing from my cellphone so it's hard. Sorry for grammar etc.

Back in 2012 when I was approved for DACA, I was 17. Does that mean that I can get sponsored by an employer now? Is it true that Ihaven't accrued illegal presence?
