If Trump strikes DACA, DACA strikes back!
There is an imminent announcement on the decision for DACA on September 5th, but we won't wait for Trump to decide our fates. DACAmented immigrants and allies are going to take direct action and put themselves at risk to fight for permanent protection, dignity, and respect.

DACA has shaped the lives of hundreds of thousands of people and their families. We need thousands of bodies to take over Fifth Avenue. We are angry but we are strong.

***Undocumented leadership is explicit that this event is nonviolent in its entirely. Nonviolence is the shield that reflects the true perpetrators of the state violence that our people suffer from daily. We feel pain from the abuses of the police and others, and we will keep exposing their violence through our discipline.***
Our Message:
This fight isn't just for us-- this is a fight to win permanent protection, dignity, and respect for all 11 million undocumented immigrants. It’s a fight to get recognition for the economic power that immigrants have and that this country depends on. Just like our parents, our biggest power comes from being workers. We are not just “DREAMers,” we are workers who contribute billions of dollars into the economy. We are part of a workforce that is 11 million strong, and without us, this country cannot function.
