Local Dreamers are raising their eyebrows skeptically as Democrats say they’re inching closer to a deal with President Donald Trump that could offer protections to nearly 800,000 Dreamers nationwide.
“If they really want to make sure young people are not feeling all this anxiety and stress and fear of not knowing what could happen to them tomorrow, they should just bring the DREAM Act up for a vote,” said Reyna Montoya, a beneficiary of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.
Trump then contradicted their statement on Twitter, waffling a bit by saying no deal had been made, but adding a note of supposed sympathy for Dreamers.
