San Diego in conjunction with United We Dream, The National Immigration Law Center, and The Center for American Progress, illustrates just how impactful DACA has been.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Of those who responded, 94 percent have pursued higher education, something that they didn\u2019t have access to before DACA, and more than 90 percent are currently employed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">The survey, which is the largest of its kind to date, also found that 69 percent of respondents reported finding a job with better pay after receiving Deferred Action, and more than half reported moving to a job that better fit their education, training and long-term career goals.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cDACA is helping unlock the economic potential of DACA recipients,\u201d said Tom Wong, an associate professor of political science at U.C. San Diego, who helped spearhead the survey.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Its recipients\u2019 earnings have improved dramatically, with wages increasing an average of 69 percent (84 percent for those 25 and older).<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Of DACA recipients currently in school, 72 percent are pursuing a bachelor\u2019s degree or higher. For those out of school, and for those 25 and older, 36 percent have a BA or graduate degree.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cThis is not only higher than the native born population as a whole, but it\u2019s also higher than the naturalized citizen population, which is the most educated subset of American society,\u201d Wong said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">According to the survey, the average age entry to the United States was 6 and a half (around kindergarten or first grade).<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cDACA recipients are American in every sense of the word but for a piece of paper,\u201d said Wong. \u201cNow as they\u2019re hitting their stride in life \u2026 the decision to end DACA is literally pulling the rug out from under DACA recipients.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_35769\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-35769\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/DACA-Profile_01web.jpg?quality=89&#038;ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-35769\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/DACA-Profile_01web.jpg?resize=500%2C334&#038;quality=89&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/DACA-Profile_01web.jpg?w=864&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 864w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/DACA-Profile_01web.jpg?resize=600%2C401&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/DACA-Profile_01web.jpg?resize=360%2C240&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/DACA-Profile_01web.jpg?resize=768%2C513&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-35769\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">DACA recipient Luis Quiroz at the New America Media roundtable, \u201cHow Safe Are Bay Area Immigrants?\u201d on Aug. 30. Photo: Adelyna Tirado<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"p4\"><b>Living undocumented in America<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">For all but that piece of paper, Luis Quiroz is an American. The San Francisco State student was born in Guerrero, Mexico, but raised in San Diego from the time he was six months old.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">During his childhood he shouldered the responsibility of interpreting and filling out applications for his parents. It was when he was 14 and wanting to fill out his own an application for a California ID, that he learned he didn\u2019t have a social security number.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cIt can be taken for granted,\u201d Quiroz said, recalling a youth where he couldn\u2019t apply for a driver\u2019s licence and financial aid, where he was turned away from his high school swim team for not having health insurance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">But DACA changed all of that. It allowed him to go from getting paid under the table in the food industry to finding a better paying job in an optometry office, which gave him a chance at a college education. Attending college was a goal instilled in him as a middle school student.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cIt was just always embedded that I would be going to college and I think that it had to do with living in the inner city,\u201d Quiroz said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Yet even then, it took Quiroz two years to apply because his family advised him not to disclose his information. But he eventually reached a point where he had no other option when he learned he didn\u2019t qualify for financial aid.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cIt gave me an identity, I could prove to the world that I was Luis Quiroz,\u201d he said, in a revealing statement alluding to the uncertainty of living undocumented. \u201cOur livelihoods are constantly at stake in political games. And that\u2019s detrimental to a safe, healthy and sane lifestyle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Between the 2005 and 2015 Quiroz\u2019s father, mother and older brother Ulises were all deported, leaving him and his younger sister (his only immediate family member who is a U.S. citizen).<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">In March 2015, his brother Ulises was murdered in Ixtapa, Guerrero in front of his four-year-old daughter, who Luis has never met. He didn\u2019t attend the funeral because he needed to save money for his advance parole application, which allowed him to safely travel and return to the country under DACA.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">By the time Quiroz managed to save enough and gather the necessary paperwork for his application, DACA had been rescinded and with it, all advance parole applications.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cI currently have no way of going to Mexico or seeing his grave,\u201d Quiroz said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Quiroz is now nine months from graduating. He attends school part time, and works full time to pay for it, splitting his workload between his optometry job and a paid fellowship with San Francisco\u2019s Office of Civic Engagement &amp; Immigrant Affairs. He\u2019s even started his own business, a social media consulting agency called Trending Socials, which helps small business with their social media marketing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Quiroz, like other DACA recipients, is now facing an increasingly uncertain future.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cAt this point I\u2019m unsure of what my future looks like. Living with that cloud looming over you, following you, not knowing when it\u2019s going to storm on you&#8230;\u201d Quiroz said. \u201cI have school, I have a job. I have things that demand my immediate attention.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Wong said that Quiroz\u2019s story illustrates why DACA matters and the numbers help tell the story.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cWhen I think about the data and what it all points too, it makes clear that DACA works,\u201d Wong said, adding, \u201cthat DACA not only improves the lives of individual recipients and their families, but positively affects the American economy and society more generally.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) is one of the most successful programs to emerge from the Obama era, and its repeal will have a devastating impact on 800,000 recipients and their families once it goes into effect early in 2018.
