Obama: " I will do whatever it takes" to pass the DREAM ACT

Right now, all I have is a press release from the National Immigration Forum, but I will update further as necessary:

Obama: I Will Do Whatever it Takes
Washington D.C. - In a speech tonight at the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Gala, President Obama endorsed the DREAM Act and renewed his commitment to achieving comprehensive immigration reform. The following is a statement from Ali Noorani, Executive Director of the National Immigration Forum.

"We're thrilled that the President has promised to put the full weight of his administration behind the effort to pass the DREAM Act. His commitment is timely and this proposal represents one of the best opportunities for Republicans and Democrats to work together on a common sense proposal that is good for America and would move us to a more sensible and fair immigration policy. It's an important step, like other sensible bipartisan proposals such as AgJOBS, on the path to comprehensive immigration reform and we are ready to work with the Administration, Democrats and Republicans on making this proposal law."

I wish he would have thought of this 15 months ago.

LOL, i think it is kind of late right now, because he should do this immediately after he won the election.

^It'll be a historic day for us beneficiaries, but not for the general public, CIR will be, when it finally comes.

Any chance of an executive order for DA in the Defense Bill? I know Obama put one on the HCR bill.

Why do you say that? We did not know about the Abortion part until they were short of the votes.

What if we are like 2 votes short again? Anything can happen.

I would like Obama better if he promised these things around non hispanics. Seems like a political move to me. All he did at the immigration conference at American University is say a whole bunch of nothing.

Obama has the power for Executive Order also. Maybe he will do that if we are short of votes.

Obama wont sign a executive order for the Dream Act, hell no. He doesnt even have all the democrats on board to pass the Dream act, and the political climate right now after the Arizona bill is looking very grim, about 14 states are introducing legislation like Arizona's. CIR and the Dream Act will pass the day that Republicans decide to have some common sense and support it, otherwise nothing will be done. I hope im wrong, but unless we have any type of Republican support we will not move forward with an immigration bill.
