DREAM ACT REINTRODUCED

Representatives Lincoln Diaz-Balart (R-FL), Howard Berman (D-CA) and Roybal-Allard (D-CA) have announced that they will introduce the DREAM Act of 2007. In the Senate, Richard Durbin (D-IL) has announced that he will also do so within days, along with Senators Chuck Hagel (R-NE) and Richard Lugar (R-IN). The DREAM Act is bipartisan legislation that provides a path to legal residency for individuals who were brought to the U.S. years ago as undocumented immigrant children but who have since grown up here, stayed in school, and kept out of trouble.
