The Dreamers Are a Good Part of America’s Future

Wall Street Journal (LTE) 
By Terry W. Hartle
July 25, 2017

Your editorial “A Bad GOP Dream” (July 20) is spot on. In March more than 550 college and university presidents sent a letter to President Trump thanking him for his positive comments about the outstanding group of young people known as “Dreamers.” Your editorial correctly notes that the president and a bipartisan majority in Congress understand that the Dreamers are talented and high-achieving individuals who contribute in many ways to American society. In terms of the illegal-immigration challenges facing our nation, these people should not be on the list because, well, they are not problems. They are assets.

The small group of state attorneys general who are asking the Secretary of Homeland Security to end the program allowing Dreamers to work and, in many cases, attend college in this country should stop immediately while the Trump administration and Congress work on a solution that will allow these bright and productive young people to live here without fear and uncertainty.
