(2-shot/steve)the south bay is also home to thousands of daca recipients.(2-shot/pam) kron four's rob fladeboe has reaction from san jose... where many of the so-called 'dreamers' and their supporters ... denounced what could be the beginning of the end of daca. "hundreds of daca supporters attended a rally here at the martin luther king dr. library tuesday to pledge their support to dreamers like ariadna, a daca recipient, who was brought to this country when she was a child. ariadna/daca recipient "....daca changed my life, it changed my family and our way of life, it gave us a fighting chance....."a range of local activists denounced the trump administrations decision to end the deferred action to children of immigrants program as callous and cowardly. city resources were pledged by

jose mayor sam liccardo.sam liccardo/san jose mayor ".....so to the thousands of dreamers in san jose and santa clara county,, we've got your back...."maricela gutierrez/immigrant rights network"....we will not let up on our pressure on the whitehouse and congress, there are several bills pending and we will pressure members on both sides of the aisle to preserve the dream act...." earlier, santa clara county government leaders pledged their support for helping daca recipients who may be in jeopardy.dave cortese/santa clara county board if supervisors"...it is irresponsible to put 800,000 people at risk and it is irresponsible to put this into the hands of a congress that is completely grid locked..." nats (prayer vigil)amid prayers and praise for having faith in the daca program, two more recipients offered their perspective on what has now put their futures in america in limbo.mitzia martinez/daca recipient ".....giving this information to the government was something we had to do

just to get basic human rights, we knew it was dangerous...."kevin gayton/daca recipient"....i don't necessarily feel betrayed, i know that donald trump has an agenda that does not include us but we are here to remind him and that we are americans and we ae here for our communities..."in san jose rob fladeboe kron 4 news the president of san jose state univeristy was quick to react to the daca decision .. and sent out an email to the entire campus. here is a part of it: "ensuring access to a quality education is neither a partisan nor political issue; it is our

mission. since its adoption in 2012, daca has provided stability and opportunity to many students ... and some of the faculty and staff members who serve them. every one of these individuals is intrinsic to the fabric of our uniquely diverse community.... viewed through this lens, today's news is deeply disappointing." ( steve ) we have shown you some of the reaction to this big story, but perhaps no statement is as profound as the one that president obama posted.( pam ) he shared it across his social media accounts, and it is quite lengthy. one look at it ... and it comes across almost like a thesis ... defending daca. grant lodes is here with some of the excerpts. grant. ( grant ) one thing that sticks out... president obama never mentions president trump by name or refers to the trump presidency. but... he has a strong rebutal.. frequently mentioning "the white house". in part reads: "to target these young people is wrong - because they have done nothing wrong. it is self-defeating - because they

want to start new businesses, staff our labs, serve in our military, and otherwise contribute to the country we love. and it is cruel." "whatever concerns or complaints americans may have about immigration in general, we shouldn't threaten the future of this group of young people who are here through no fault of their own, who pose no threat, who are not taking away anything from the rest of us... "kicking them out won't lower the unemployment rate, or lighten anyone's taxes, or raise anybody's wages." "ultimately, this is about basic decency. this is about whether we are a people who kick hopeful young strivers out of america, or whether we treat them the way we'd want our own kids to be treated. it's about who we are as a people - and who we want to be." certainly strong words from the former president. you can tell this is an issue close to his heart. and you can view the entire statement from him on our website, kron four dot com.
