It is very important for NumbersUSA members to continue pressing their senators to oppose any iteration of the DREAM Act.

(October 24) The Senate failed to obtain cloture on the DREAM Act amnesty (S. 2205) earlier this afternoon by a 52-44 vote (vote count not yet available), for which 60 YES votes were needed to prevent a filibuster. At this time, leadership from both parties are meeting to discuss possible courses of action regarding this issue (i.e., consider compromise proposals or set aside entirely). Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and Assistant Majority Leader Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) were attempting to bring this nightmarish amnesty bill to the floor under Senate Rule XIV without it ever having been debated in committee.

I know we're a little tired, but if you have time, please help keep the pressure on! Sen. Reid can bring this back at any time.
