Detaining people like Juan won’t make America any safer. But it does hurt his family and create fear and uncertainty in communities like his who are contributing every day to this country.

Dreamers like Juan deserve to have peace of mind and the freedom to build their lives safely in the country they call home. Instead, this Administration is targeting them to fulfill their mass deportation quotas.
Juan isn't a criminal. He's not the worst of the worst. He's a DACA recipient who grew up in America, went to school, and is now a medical lab scientist giving back to his community in Texas.

Juan Sebastian Chavez Velasco's nine month old daughter is in the hospital, but he can't be with her because he's been detained by Trump's ICE.
I just heard from a Nevadan who told me that because of the SAVE America Act, she plans to spend over $165 to apply for a passport just to be able to vote.
Call your Senators and tell them to reject this voter suppression legislation: (202) 224-3121
Glad to meet with members of the Parliament of Canada this afternoon to discuss the partnership between our countries that makes us strong. From trade to travel and tourism, Canada is a key partner for Nevada’s economy and communities in every corner of our state. Thank you for being here.
These children were victims of abuse and neglect and came to America for safety. They received special immigration protections to keep them from being abused again.
But the Trump Admin. is ignoring those protections and sending children back into harm's way.
Children are being traumatized because of the color of their skin. Even when they don't have family members who are undocumented, they feel fear because of what's happening to their peers who look like them.
Trump's cruel and indiscriminate tactics have no place in this country.
That's not a hypothetical, it's what's happening right now as this Administration creates ridiculous, months-long delays to process DACA renewals.
I'm pushing the Department of Homeland Security to cut down the processing time and deliver the peace of mind Dreamers deserve.
Picture this: you're a Nevadan with DACA. You're working, you're following the law, and you file on time for your renewal.
But the Trump Admin. delays your renewal past the expiration date. Now, you've lost your work permit, possibly even your job. And if you have a family, that impacts everyone.
If you're struggling to pay for your gas to get to work or to keep food on the table for your family, the Trump Admin.'s message to you is that you are "the last of our concerns right now."
At every single turn Trump and his cronies have put Americans last.
Hardworking Nevada families deserve a break.
I'm pushing to cut taxes for families so they can focus on what matters: giving their children every possible opportunity.
The cost of undoing Republicans' Medicaid cuts and protecting health care access for tens of thousands of Nevadans is less than the cost of 1 week of Trump's War in Iran.
But we already know the health of Nevadans isn’t a priority for this President.
Americans have paid over $2 billion more for gas since Trump took our country to war on his own.
Working families could have used that money to buy groceries, school clothes for their kids, or medication. Instead, the President has essentially taken that money out of their pocket.
On top of other provisions to lower housing costs, the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act includes two of my bills to invest in housing right here in Nevada:
Nevadans have been waiting far too long for relief from soaring housing prices.
I'm proud to have voted to pass the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act to build more homes and help working Nevadans afford them.
