Daddy Yankee, Juanes, Demi Lovato, More, Send Message To DREAMers After News Of Trump Ending DACA

Jeff Sessions announced today the decision of Donald Trump to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals that was implemented during the Obama administration to protect immigrants that came in to the U.S. as children and are now contributing to the country. "Simply put if we are to further our goal of strengthening the constitutional order and rule of law in America the Department of Justice cannot defend this overreach," Sessions said. He also added that there would be a six-month delay in terminating it to give Congress time to act. The end of DACA means that 800,000 children will no longer be protected.

Fifth Harmony member, Lauren Jauregui, had read the rumors of where Trump's decision was headed and blasted the president. "It's incredible to me that you'll pardon a man who is known for running his prison as a Latino concentration camp and call him a patriot, but then deport kids with a dream to be successful citizens with safe lives," she wrote on Twitter. "You disgust me. You and your squad of Republican elite/cowards are truly sick humans. Pardoning criminals and criminalizing the vulnerable."

Her former bandmate Camila Cabello called for the dreamers to resit and stand up, while Lin-Manuel Miranda wrote the following: "Okay. The Bad Man continues to be bad. Your move, Congress. George Lopez also took to social media and shared a video and wrote: "These young Americans, brought here as children, have known no other country but our own. They are as American as any of us. They have followed our laws, worked hard in school, paid taxes and many have served in our military to defend our freedom and values. They ARE Americans – plain and simple."

Daddy Yankee, Luis Fonsi, Juanes, La Santa Cecilia, Demi Lovato, Shakira, Becky G and more stars also sent their messages to Dreamers that was rounded up in a Spotify playlist.

California Senator Kamala D. Harris also reacted to the news and said: "Dreamers are Americans in every way except a piece of paper. With this decision, President Trump is telling classmates of our children they don't belong, employees of Fortune 100 companies they aren't welcome, and saying to those who serve in our military and run small businesses that they should leave. These young people deserve better than that. They came out of the shadows and submitted every detail of their personal lives to prove that they were lawful, productive members of our society. By turning his back on our young Dreamers and their families, President Trump has once again sided with division and hate."

The Telemundo network also weighed in after the controversial decision saying: "Telemundo stands with the 800,000 Dreamers who are integral to the economy, culture and spirit of our nation. We are disheartened by the decision to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. In addition to the human impact of this decision, repealing DACA will result in the loss of thousands of jobs in the United States and billions of dollars in economic growth over the next decade. We urge Congress to act swiftly to preserve the rights of these valuable members of our community. All of our elected representatives should be held accountable toward this end.”
