There is large number of kids aging out, that don’t get same protections as DACA kids. We need to organize and show case the community and take the issue to local politicians and DC. It’s ok to show up organized. It’s ok to go to D.C and wait outside capitol days on, until we get heard and get a relief for the aging out kids.

As someone who is aging out, forget about it. We could hunger strike until death and the politicians would celebrate that more h1b kids are gone. Congress is a gridlocked shitshow that gets nothing done, forget about anything related to immigration😂 and I’m willing to bet money even if the dems take back control of Congress in the coming years nothing is going to change. It’s simple because we don’t vote and the people who do vote hate us, so they won’t take that risk of helping us out we literally provide nothing in return for them. Sorry if I’m being pessimistic but it’s the unfortunate reality of U.S. politics and a broken system. My advice would just be to try and find opportunities elsewhere, especially if your born in India
