Hundreds are adding their voices to those across the county and country protesting the decision to end the program known as DACA.  Yesterday about 250 people rallied outside Saint Vincent De Paul Catholic Church in Petaluma to show their support of Dreamers protected from deportation by the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which the Trump administration announced it would end.  Some protesters identified themselves as DACA recipients, who would lose the ability to continue working if the program were to be rescinded.
