Dream Act
DREAM ACT VOTE PREVIEW ...Huffington Post<br />Dream Act <br />DREAM ACT VOTE PREVIEW - Elise Foley: "Going into the DREAM Act vote tomorrow, it still looks unlikely that the bill will squeeze past 60 votes. The bill has about 52 sure "yes" votes, including Republicans Richard Lugar and Bob Bennett. Advocates are hoping some as-of-yet undecided Dems and moderate Republicans will come around, too. Advocates are targeting senators from states with large Latino populations -- George LeMieux, that means you -- and Republicans who supported the bill before. Orrin Hatch, the bill's original sponsor, and 2007 advocate John McCain won't budge on their opposition. But Sam Brownback, Susan Collins, Kay Bailey Hutchison and Olympia Snowe -- all of whom supported the bill in 2007 -- theoretically could. Then Dems would just need to convince a couple more of their own. <br />I see Old Orrin won't be voting for ILLEGAL ALIEN AMNESTY.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00655543823334363900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392307124116993389.post-24606089675133122032010-12-16T10:48:47.252-05:002010-12-16T10:48:47.252-05:00Mike: American Citizenship is not a "given&qu...Mike: American Citizenship is not a "given" for everyone. Some of us chose and are allowed to become American. Others, like the children of Illegal Aliens, will have that choice with the Dream Act.

Over three million students ...Mike, for your info: <br />Over three million students graduate from U.S. high schools every year. Most get the opportunity to test their dreams and live their American story. However, a group of approximately 65,000 youth do not get this opportunity; they are smeared with an inherited title, an illegal immigrant. These youth have lived in the United States for most of their lives and want nothing more than to be recognized for what they are, Americans.<br /><br />The DREAM Act is a bipartisan legislation ‒ pioneered by Sen. Orin Hatch [R-UT] and Sen. Richard Durbin [D-IL] ‒ that can solve this hemorrhaging injustice in our society. Under the rigorous provisions of the DREAM Act, qualifying undocumented youth would be eligible for a 6 year long conditional path to citizenship that requires completion of a college degree or two years of military service.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392307124116993389.post-19767244721452326702010-12-15T07:57:10.554-05:002010-12-15T07:57:10.554-05:00Duetch voted Yes on the Dream Act which gives Amne...Duetch voted Yes on the Dream Act which gives Amnesty to ILLEGAL ALIENS.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00655543823334363900noreply@blogger.com
