Stop wrongful discrimination against the Dependent children of H1 visa holders, who are also Dreamers, only not illegal.

Created by D.D. on December 16, 2013

Undocumented individuals who satisfy the 7 requirements for "Consideration of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (deferred action)" are granted work authorization and are issued an Employment Authorization Document (EAD).

While many H4 children who are currently attending public educational institutions in the US satisfy all guidelines except the one which says they should have

"Entered without inspection before June 15, 2012, or your lawful immigration status expired as of June 15, 2012",
they are not allowed to undertake any kind of paid internships or part time work to support their education.

We petition the Obama administration to STOP this discrimination immediately by extending the same benefit of work authorization to H4 dependent children who satisfy the other 6 criteria
