SAN ANTONIO – The details, such as a pathway to citizenship still to be determined, but the new Texas Opportunity Coalition launched last week has come out in support of what could be a stand-alone Dream Act giving DACA recipients permanent legal status.
The varied and bipartisan coalition includes leaders in business, manufacturing, education and communities statewide, among others.
For instance, its co-chair, Eddie Aldrete, senior vice president of International Bank of Commerce, said, “Bankers, by their nature, are economic developers” but added, “Communities can’t grow and jobs can’t be created if we don’t have people to fill those jobs.”
