Congress should restore DACA rights or be voted out of office

There are many sheep without a good shepherd now in Congress. They are just following a lost shepherd, our president, concerning the DACA situation.

It all started that evening at the correspondents’ dinner, when President Obama got back at Donald Trump, because Trump was saying that Obama was born out of the country.

Now that Trump is president, in a childish manner, he is out to overturn everything Obama has done and DACA is a major one.

With that and his habit of listening to the whisper in his ear from the far-right-thinking Steve Bannon, has done this terrible thing to upset so many lives. It is a horrible situation that all people in Congress should stand up to and declare is wrong.

If not, they should be voted out of office as soon as possible..
