Re: The Senator of the Week: Mega Thread - Build up Cosponsors.
We gained 3 more cosponsors in the House because it's up to 73 now. Anybody know who the three new cosponsors are?
EDIT: Never mind, I found the three. Our three new cosponsors are: 1. Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA 04) 2. Rep. Rick Larsen (D-WA 02) 3. Rep. James McGovern (D-MA 03) |
Re: The Senator of the Week: Mega Thread - Build up Cosponsors.

Re: The Senator of the Week: Mega Thread - Build up Cosponsors.
Response: Evan Bayh
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you for contacting me about the Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors Act of 2009 (DREAM Act), S. 729. I appreciate hearing your thoughts and concerns on this important issue. As you may know, S. 729 was introduced in the Senate on March 26, 2009. The DREAM Act would amend the 1996 immigration law to give states the ability to offer in-state tuition to undocumented children without requiring them to do so. It also would enable eligible unauthorized students to obtain legal permanent residency status. To be eligible, aliens must have entered the U.S. before their 16th birthday, have a continuous physical presence in the U.S. for 5 years preceding enactment, good moral character and graduation from secondary school or the equivalent. Currently, this legislation has been referred to the Judiciary Committee. While I am not a member of this committee, please rest assured should this legislation make its way to the Senate floor, I will keep your views in mind. Again, thank you for contacting me. I hope the information I have provided to you has been helpful. My website, http://bayh.senate.gov, can provide additional details about legislation and state projects, and you can also sign-up to receive email updates. I value your input and hope you will continue to keep me informed of the issues important to you. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nothing. Also, the update for this week will come after the June 25th meeting. It seems that senators don't want to take action until the bill progresses more. |
