Jam was featured in a 2018 video with Spotify to support Dreamers fighting back against the actions of the Trump administration.

As president in 2017 , Trump rescinded DACA , the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which allowed undocumented young adults who came to the U.S. as children to work and study without fear of deportation.

"When I heard the first things that came out of Trump 's mouth, I said, 'Oh, my God, this sounds ugly,'" Jam told Dreamers .

Since DACA was closed for new applicants, an estimated 400,000 people who would have been eligible have been shut out.

Nearly 93,000 first -time applicants have been left in limbo for the past three years .

Most DACA recipients have lived in the U.S. for more than 16 years .

Supporters say DACA is one of the most successful policies for immigrant integration.
