Letter: Futures at stake as Congress debates DACA

I am a DACA student in the mechanical engineering program at WSU Tri-Cities as a senior, and I would like Congress to pass a bi-partisan bill to support DACA.

My future depends on a solution to be successful in my career, as I've been here since I was 5 years old. I continue to grow as a professional, and I want to strive for opportunities in my near future.

Only Congress can come to common ground and find a solution.

Maria G. Torres Mendoza, Pasco
