Georgia advocates are encouraging DACA status renewals.

Georgia U.S. Congressman Hank Johnson promoted the renewal of DACA recipients’ work authorizations during a press conference held at the Latin American Association Atlanta Outreach Center on Tuesday.

“To all of the DACA recipients within the sound of my voice, please renew your work authorization right away. Please don’t wait,” Johnson said. His district includes parts of Gwinnett. About a quarter of that county’s population is foreign-born.
