Hey, I'm new (:

Hi, my name is Charity. I'm 16 years old, I don't know if that is young to be on here or not, haha. Well I found this because I was researching the Dream Act because my boyfriend is an illegal immigrant. We have been dating for over a year and at first I didn't know he was illegal. It took him a while to tell me. There are so many things he can't do because he is illegal and it's really sad. He didn't choose to come here, his parents brought him here when he was 4 or 5 so he had no choice. I know many other children are probably in this same situation. That is why I want the Dream Act passed. He didn't have a choice and now he has to suffer for it. Well, that's my introduction..

Is M your boyfriend?

Welcome iheartm. It is good to hear you decided to get involved and support the DREAM Act. Please help us by visiting our Advocacy section and helping us contact our legislators and urging them to support the act.
