I am hispanic and I am against the dream act.
Many of these illegal aliens want the Dream Act so they can get FINANCIAL AID! I am fluent in spanish and have talked to a few illegals that have told me that is the reason why they "pray" is passes. Many hard working US Citizen cannot qualify for this assistance.

I was shocked to learn that the State of Texas has a program that provides assistance to illegal aliens. They even offer the application in spanish!
I wrote my representative to express my outrage, but only received a standard reply.
