    Should Congress pass the 'Dream Act' to help children of illegal immigrants?

    More than 65,000 undocumented students who have lived in the U.S. for five years or more will graduate from high school this spring. For their native-born classmates, graduation is a rite of passage into adulthood. For many undocumented students, it’s a dead end.
    That is the urgent message in a new report contending that the initial investment in the K-12 education of these students, mandated by the Supreme Court in 1982, is lost if we continue to curb their ability to contribute to society after they graduate from high school. Estimates suggest that the Dream Act would provide 360,000 undocumented high school graduates with a legal means to work and secure additional resources for college, and could provide incentives for another 715,000 youngsters between the ages of 5 and 17 to finish high school (to fulfill the act’s eligibility requirements) and pursue post-secondary education.

    The Dream Act would provide a serious shot in the arm to our struggling economy.

    College Board, news release

    The House and the Senate have reintroduced a sweeping illegal alien amnesty bill known as the Dream Act — for Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors.

    Leann WELCOME TO ALIPAC

    You have come to right place to learn why the answer is "NO".

    One of many posts:
    ALIPAC: Lifting ban on illegal immigrants may profit https://www.alipac.us/collegehttp://www.alipac.us/ftopicp-885029-.html#885029

    Everyone needs to understand what the non college route undocumented students are doing to the Class Ranking of American Students trying to get into American Colleges.

    There needs to be a class action lawsuit against the public school systems for defrauding American Citizens out of College.

    I firmly think the Dream Act is trying to do a cover up of the mess our government is in. The government is trying to make it legal the abuse to American Students with the Dream Act.

    Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote!

    Welcome Leann
    I support enforcement and see its lack as bad for the 3rd World as well. Remittances are now mostly spent on consumption not production assets. Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
