When the DACA protest ended, we organized, mobilized, and carpooled to seven different City Council meetings where resolutions opposing the border wall were the hot agenda item. About the Rio Grande Valley . The Rio Grande Valley is a region of small towns in South Texas with a unique cultural identity. Located along the Rio Grande River and the Gulf of Mexico, itâs home to almost 2 million people. The majority of the population is latino, of which 28,000 are DACA recipients. People from here tend to refer to themselves as being from âthe Valley,â rather than the specific tiny town named by a white settler.
This is the largest study to date of DACA recipients with a sample size of 3,063 respondents in 46 states as well as the District of Columbia. The data illustrate that DACA recipients continue to make positive and significant contributions to the economy, including earning higher wages, which translates into higher tax revenue and economic growth that benefits all Americans. In addition, DACA recipients are buying cars, purchasing their first homes, and even creating new businesses. The surveyâs results also show that at least 72 percent of the top 25 Fortune 500 companies employ DACA recipients.
