california national guard members patrolling ports of entry along our border. the number goes from 155 to nearly 400 service members, all trying to stop criminal gangs and drug trafficking, newsom says the state's counter drug task force is holding smugglers accountable. >> san isidro port of entry, not too far away, which is the largest in the western hemisphere. and we were just down here with the national guard meeting with customs, agents, as well as border patrol talking about our partnerships. 390 national guardsmen and women that have been working, particularly as relates to fentanyl. >> the operation, called cal guard, sees more than 62,000 pounds of fentanyl. last year alone. that's a 1,000% increase from just 2021. >> the san francisco police department is showing off items seized in a large drug bust in the mission district. police say plain clothes officers acting on a tip stopped a car in the area of 17th and shotwell streets. they found three kilos of

action for childhood arrivals program. president biden has announced he will hold an event next week to celebrate that program. daca was created by the obama administration back in 2012. it was designed to protect eligible young adults who came to the u.s. as children from deportation. since its creation, daca has faced legal challenges, with the most recent being last

year when a federal judge again declared daca illegal. well, now the policy is being litigated in the courts, leaving recipients in a state of uncertainty, according to the nonprofit the center for american progress, there are more than 544,000 active daca recipients who live in this country, right now, and one of them is jacqueline valencia. thanks so much for joining us. >> thank you for having me. >> so tell me your story because it's important to understand the individual stories and how this daca program was designed to help people like you. tell me, tell me the dreamers story of yours. >> yeah. like many, i was brought here to the us as a child. i was only two and a half years old when me and my mother came here to actually fremont, california, then here resided in oakland and now richmond, i don't even have any recollection's right of like, the traveling here, the sacrifices that my mother had to make and leaving my two sisters behind. >> and the idea is that you don't know any other life

besides the one in the us. and i think that was the genesis of this program. yeah. >> and my mother wanted for me to have an education. and she knew that in mexico i had less opportunities, she had less opportunities. and so that's why she migrated here to the us with me and my sisters. >> and your sisters came later. you said when you came to. >> yes, they came later. so they were separated. >> there are some numbers that i think are interesting as we take a look at some very cute childhood pictures of you, you know, when you talk about daca recipients and you talk about the history of, of people coming here, there was this 2023 survey we put out there on the screen, average age at arrival six and 6.6 years old. right. the average time in the us now 25 years, nine out of ten are employed are in school, three out of ten are first time home buyers. and so the rule was you had to be here by 2007 for you to qualify. what do you think is the misconception about dreamers and that 12 years later, because there's so much political and

legal battling over the program that that you are trying to get across, because we know you advocate and you you talk about the dreamers situation in order to help other dreamers like you. >> yeah. and i and i think, you know, dreamers are not stealing jobs, right? i think many of us, you know, went to college are going to school right now, have many professions, whether it's in child care. right. taking care of america's children's, to being doctors, lawyers. you know, i have friends in the medical field. i have friends who are lawyers. and so, they're not stealing jobs. we're not here to steal jobs. we're here to also be taxpayers. like we've been since daca started. i think that's, for example, the opportunity that i've gotten is to be able to do my taxes and hopefully one day, yes, become a homeowner. >> is there a lot of fear? i mean, you we're looking at at video and we're looking at your own personal pictures of when you advocate, do you live in a level of fear? yes because just being in daca, being in limbo and being in the courts, it's

like every three, four months, six months, right? it's like the anxiety, the panic will i, you know, be able to keep my job, you know, will my fellow classmates, you know, will i still be able to coach, for example, you know, something that i'm very passionate about? will i be able to support and paying the mortgage for my parents? you know, who don't have a full time job? so i think that's my main worry, like many others who are in this situation right now and tell me what life is like for you now, you mentioned coaching. >> you coached soccer. and you, you you're just kind of living and waiting. >> yeah, yeah. so, being able to work full time, you know, with having daca, having that social security number, allows me to also be employed with the west contra costa unified school district. and i've been very passionate on the last eight years coaching soccer, softball and volleyball for the high school that i graduated from. so at this point i'm able to give back, and i think without daca, i will not be able to coach. >> what do you say for the larger issue for folks who say

illegal immigration is the obviously that's a hot button issue, the point of daca, as supporters will say, is to not bring in the kids who didn't make any decisions. but for your parents who were seeking, seeking a better life. and as this immigration question comes up, what are your thoughts on that, on how to address the issues of immigration, specifically illegal immigration, and also kind of remember the humanity behind it? >> i think there's just thousands of millions of, you know, folks who have been here in the u.s. since 1984, 1990. right. and i think creating a pathway to citizenship for folks who have been here in the u.s, i think can stabilize and continue the growth here in america, financially. and i think you know, folks are going to be able to give back, right, to their home countries. and maybe folks will will not, you know, have the need to come here to america because some of us want to stay in our home countries. it's just difficult financially. and so i

think that that could be a, i think, a reasonable ask is to give a pathway to citizenship to everyone that's already here who has been here for decades. >> yeah, certainly a complex issue when you talk about all the issues that are brought in. yeah i so appreciate you sharing your story with us. >> thank you for having me. >> thank you so much. thanks for coming in. all right. time now is 719. more people are switching to electric vehicles in the bay area city. how? its mayor is trying to make it easier for owners to find the chargers. they a slow network is no network for business. that's why more choose comcast business. and now, we're introducing ultimate speed for business —our fastest plans yet. we're up to 12 times faster than verizon, at&t, and t-mobile. and existing customers could even get up to triple the speeds... at no additional cost. it's ultimate speed for ultimate business. don't miss out on our fastest speed plans yet!
