[Blindtlk] Information about dreamers needed

[Cindy Ray]

The whole point of the message is that if we have information concerning
blind DREAMers who are in the country, the national office wants to have
that information because these young people need to be able to live the
lives they want. The National Federation of the Blind is committed to all of
us in this country who are blind living the lives we want, and as such our
National Federation of the Blind will continue to work toward that end. That
means all of us who are members of the National Federation of the Blind.
Cindy Lou Ray

or guardians to bring them into this country illegally.  And many of them
who were brought here years ago have not known any other home and have gone
to school and either continue to go to school or are productive, employed
people, who themselves pay taxes by the way.  So I certainly think DACA
dreamers, whether blind or not, should be given the help they need to
continue to be productive and have a better life here.
