Provide them a path to citizenship. Maintain existing protections for families and unaccompanied minors.\r\n\r\nOn Monday February 26<sup>th <\/sup>we are asking Catholic voters in our 1100 parishes across the state to join in a \u201cNational Call-In Day\u201d urging you to find a bipartisan solution for the \u201cDreamers\u201d and for our country. Please listen to these voices of reason this coming week. Heed the voices of the Dreamers with or without DACA status &#8211; students, workers, teachers, soldiers, moms and dads \u2013 who were brought here unauthorized and without their consent. They are valuable members of our neighborhoods, our workplaces, and our families. They are part of the rich social fabric of America.\u00a0\u00a0 They have been educated in our schools and are fluent in our language and culture. They contribute to the common good and should be part of our common future as a nation.\r\n\r\nWe, along with the majority of Californians, daily watch the pitiful partisan drama unfold, demeaning our public discourse and dismissive of the greater good. \u00a0The time for responsible and intelligent immigration reform is now. Work with each other to solve the dilemma of the \u201cDreamers.\u201d Addressing their situation is the immediate first step in a quality national conversation on immigration reform that will take time and require focus. It would be unconscionable to hold young people hostage for political mid-term electoral advantage. Demonstrate good sense and a sound conscience by standing in solidarity with the Dreamers.\r\n\r\nThe majority of voters, Republican and Democrats alike, want the \u201cDreamers\u201d situation resolved. It is time to move beyond partisan agendas. There is no mutually agreeable perfect solution, but there is common ground for a good solution.\r\n\r\nThank you for your work on behalf of the people of California, including the 700,000 plus California \u201cDreamers.\u201d Know that we are praying for you.\r\n\r\nRespectfully,\r\n\r\nThe Public Policy Committee of the California Conference of Catholic Bishops\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>Most Rev.
