"President Obamas White House will honor illegal immigrant activists at a ceremony Tuesday.
Two activists with the group Mi Familia Vota Education Fund will be honored as Champions of Change at a special White House ceremony.
Fernanda Zaragoza-Gomez, 19, a Colorado Mi Familia Vota canvasser, and Steven Arteaga Rodriguez, a Texas activist with the group, are both DREAMers who began their activism careers after applying for and gaining Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), a program established by Obama to provide living and working status for undocumented young immigrants.
