Seattle Police Department Hiring ‘Illegal’ DACA Immigrants as Officers
DACA recipients (aka “Dreamers”) were said to be eligible for positions within the city’s law enforcement team in mid-2024.
Seattle Police Department announced in June 2024 it was hiring DACA recipients as law enforcement officers in June 2024.
Fact Checked: TRUE
On June 19, 2024, the X account @disclosetv claimed Seattle Police Department started hiring “illegal immigrant ‘Dreamers'” as law enforcement officers.
The term “Dreamers” means young immigrants who were brought to the U.S. unlawfully as children and remain undocumented. It originally referred to the Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act, a proposed law that would grant immigrant youth legal status and a path to citizenship.
Some Dreamers are now protected under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, created by former U.S. President Barack Obama’s administration, which gives temporary, renewable protections to these young people.
On June 6, 2024, Seattle Police Department (SPD) uploaded a post on LinkedIn that said the organization “is now accepting applications from DACA recipients.”
The Seattle government’s website also stated in multiple places that DACA recipients could apply to join the city’s law enforcement team, which is why we have rated this claim as “True.”
The Seattle government described DACA as “a form of temporary relief from deportation known as ‘deferred action’ to undocumented youth who came to the U.S. before the age of 16, who resided in the U.S. since June 2007, and who met other requirements.”
DACA also provides eligibility for these same individuals to receive a work permit. DACA status is renewable every two years.
More than 800,000 undocumented youth nationwide received this temporary relief. In [the state of] Washington, approximately 18,000 undocumented youth are DACA recipients, and we estimate about one-third to half of them live in Seattle-King County.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services said the program, which was announced on June 15, 2012, “does not provide lawful status” as a U.S. citizen.
The Guardian newspaper published an explainer on DACA and “Dreamers” on June 18, 2020.
Numerous news outlets covered Seattle’s decision to allow DACA recipients and “Dreamers” to apply for law enforcement jobs in June 2024.
