THIS IS IT. WE NEED ALL HANDS ON DECK TO ENSURE CONGRESS PASSES A CLEAN DREAM ACT AND GRANTS PERMANENT PROTECTION TO UNDOCUMENTED YOUTH BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR

Congress has passed a short-term spending bill, delaying the final decision about whether or not to include a clean DREAM Act until December 22nd. In response, we will be taking massive nonviolent direct action in Washington DC and in cities nationwide on December 18th-22nd, starting on the 7th anniversary of when the original DREAM Act died in the Senate, to demand permanent protection for all undocumented youth. This is our best shot at passing the Dream act, we can and must win before the end of the year. We have 11 days to make this happen; we cannot do this without you.

Join us on December 18th in Washington D.C. or organize a local action to ensure a clean Dream Act granting permanent protection to undocumented youth is included in the year-end spending bill.

DACA recipients will be doing what Congress doesn’t have the courage to: take a stand for undocumented youth, despite the risks. If you’ve ever said that you “support the Dreamers”, we need you now. Stay tuned and follow @seedproj #NoDreamNoDeal

About #OurDream

The #OurDream campaign is calling on every Democrat and Republican who says they support Dreamers to join Senators Kamala Harris, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Dick Durbin, Cory Booker and Congressman Keith Ellison who have pledged to vote against any spending bill that does not include permanent protection for undocumented youth. We need you to take action until we win permanent protection. Every single person deserves the opportunity to pursue their dream, regardless of their skin color, their gender, or where they were born. Our families, our communities, and all 11 million undocumented immigrants in the United States will not give up on this fight.

Join the fight for #OurDream.
