Reading this and thinking about some statements I said in the past makes me hopeful something will indeed happen around 2013-2014 in favor of DREAMers and CIR beneficiaries.

I remember saying in 2011 that something big will happen around the time of the election cycle. I thought it was going to be the DREAM Act, but then realized that the House was never going to entertain the mere thought of it. Instead, we got DACA which is in itself one of the best things to happen to us in recent years.

I am cautiously optimistic this time around as well.
