Liliana Bernabe was featured in the 2018 Source Women’s Issue, sharing her story of living in the U.S., after coming to the country from Mexico as a young child.

The Source checked back in with Bernabe following the U.S. Supreme Court ruling against the Trump Administration’s effort to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which offered protection from deportation for people who entered the U.S. as children. Bernabe, who’s getting ready to graduate with her associate’s degree from Central Oregon Community College, joined Editor Nicole Vulcan and Source intern Miina McCown for a chat about her reaction to the ruling.
