Rep. Henry Cuellar (TX-28) Support for DACA and DREAMers
Cuellar - 1 (Date Prepared: 8/25/2021)
Rep. Cuellar Defends DACA and DREAMers
Supports Long-term Solutions for Immigration System
Rep. Cuellar, in March 2021, co-sponsored H.R. 6, the American Dream and Promise Act of 2021.
(PASSED HOUSE).
Legislation to provide a route to citizenship for Dreamers — undocumented immigrants brought
to the U.S. as children — as well as individuals shielded by Temporary Protected Status and
Deferred Enforced Departure.
Rep. Cuellar, in March 2019, co-sponsored H.R. 6, the American Dream and Promise Act of 2019.
(PASSED HOUSE)
Legislation to provide conditional green cards and work authorizations to immigrants who were
brought illegally to the U.S. as children if they meet criteria similar to the Deferred Action for
Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
Rep. Cuellar supported two separate amendments in the 2019 Homeland Security Appropriations bill
that prohibit DHS from deporting, detaining or initiating removal proceedings for DACA recipients.
These amendments applied to DACA recipients who have served or are currently serving in the
US Military, and DACA recipients more broadly, so long as they are in good standing and still
meet all the requirements of eligibility for the DACA program.
Rep. Cuellar, in September 2017, co-sponsored H.R. 3440, the Development, Relief, and Education for
Alien Minors (DREAM) Act of 2017.
Legislation to authorize the cancellation of removal and adjustment of status of certain
individuals who are long-term United States residents and who entered the United States as
children.
Rep. Cuellar, in January 2015, opposed a floor amendment that bars the federal government to
implement, administer, carry out or enforce immigration policies or to grant any federal benefit to any
illegal immigrant.
Amendment applied to deferred action against illegal immigrants and focused on prosecutorial
discretion and changes to immigration enforcement priorities, as well as any substantially similar
policies issued in the future. It also would declare that such immigration policies have no
statutory or constitutional basis.
Rep. Cuellar, in January 2015, opposed a floor amendment that bars federal government to consider
new, renewal or previously denied DACA applications.
Opposed the prohibition of funding to any agency or instrumentality of the federal government to
consider new, renewal or previously denied applications under the president's 2012 Deferred
Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program or by any other succeeding executive policy.

Henry Cuellar is in danger of losing his democrat House seat in Texas. As you said, over the years, Cuellar has pushed and voted for many legislative measures far out of the American mainstream. The difference now is that Cuellar recognizes border regions of Texas are turning away from democrats because of immigration 'open border' policies of the Biden administration. There is real fear in democrat circles that Hispanics are moving towards the republican party.
