ACHIEVE Act-Alternative to DREAM act....proposed by a REPUBLICAN (Say what?)


"The bill being floated would apply to undocumented immigrants who came to the United States before the age of 14 as long as they are under the age of 28, if they have no college degree. If they are college-educated, the age limit is 32, according to the Daily Caller. The Dream Act, by contrast, would allow immigrants to apply so long as they came before the age of 16 and are currently under the age of 30.

Both plans require an immigrant to show good moral character, maintain a felony-free criminal record, and live in the U.S. for five consecutive years before the bill's enactment -- assuring foreign nationals will not enter the country now simply to apply."

They're gonna try to pass it by the end of this year!!! Looks like Santa may have brought some EXTRA presents this year!
I don't think we'll see anything this year, maybe early 2013, but it sounds pretty good for all of us dreamers.
