Only thing I agree with is not being allowed to sponsor family members. Reason I say this is because after DREAM is passed CIR will have more momentum than ever. (lets face it the congressional Hispanic caucus, and other Latinos apposed to "piecemeal" reform will be up in arms about DREAM)

I don't think that it would be constitutional to prevent DREAM-ies turned citizen from sponsoring their relatives. I say this because under the law all citizens have the same rights (gonna go with the 14th Amendment here) -- it doesn't make sense to legally create a sub-class of citizens (and we're talking about some 2-3 million people) who do not have all the rights of regular citizens -- like sponsoring relatives.
Anyway, I just hope that they don't lower the entry-age to lower than 16. The last time I entered it was about 3 weeks before my 16th birthday. If they modify it at all, I'm fucked.
