Verizon applauds Supreme Court ruling preserving protections for Dreamers

WASHINGTON — The following statement should be attributed to Kathy Grillo, Verizon SVP and DGC, Public Policy & Government Affairs:

“The United States Supreme Court today struck down an attempt to terminate the DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) program. Verizon has long stood with Dreamers and we are proud to celebrate today’s ruling with Dreamers around the nation.

Dreamers belong here. They are crucial contributors who strengthen our communities and our nation. Dreamers are our colleagues, our friends, and our family.

Verizon applauds today’s ruling and we call on our nation’s leaders to find a permanent solution to protect Dreamers.”
