Sol Vargas Carrillo lived under the uncertainty of being undocumented for years, and she doesn't want anyone else to go through that. “We are done waiting around for solutions. We want something now, and we want commitment,” Vargas Carrillo said.
From left, Sol Vargas Carrillo and Andrea Jimenez Flores joined Comunidades Unidas members at the Salt Lake County Government Center to urge Utah Sen. Mitt Romney to enact permanent protections for DACA recipients and undocumented immigrants, Dec. 13, 2022.The day after Sol Vargas Carrillo’s dad was slain in Mexico, she went back to Herriman High School as if nothing had happened.
Vargas Carrillo is now a U.S. resident but her immigration path was complex. Her family got separated, and she didn’t qualify for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. So she lived under the uncertainty of being undocumented for seven years.Comunidades Unidas “While I support giving Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals individuals legal status, I oppose giving these individuals a special pathway to citizenship,” the site states. “I also support ending chain migration and the visa lottery program.”
“We want them to know that we are done taking bread crumbs. We want the real deal,” Vargas Carrillo said. “By accepting DACA, we also failed our parents, we failed all of those who did not qualify for the program. And then not only that, we failed to actually receive a pathway to citizenship. The only thing that we did receive was protection from deportation.”
