Cornyn statement on DREAM

WASHINGTON” U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-Texas) issued the following statement on the Defense Authorization Bill:

“The Dream Act should be a part of comprehensive immigration reform. Adding it to the Defense Authorization, which already contains an unwarranted repeal of ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,’ is cynical and transparently political. Senator Reid said just yesterday that job creation should be Congress’ top priority, and I agree with him on that. I fail to see how his actions meet that goal. I have no doubt that Americans will see this for what it is.”

Let's call and email his office and get him to change his mind!

Was Senator John Cornyn (R-Texas) Ever a supporter or co-sponsor of the dream act?

Don't even think about to change his mind. Cornyn will not change his mind because he is just another flip-flop, and do not care about immigration issue. only talk but no action at all and blame all the responsibility to Obama Administration. if CIR bring up, he will come out another stupid reasons to block it and fail it. most of Republicans don't want to solve this problems and what they want to do is deport all of us.

i don't really understand why so many Americans still support republicans, and they all see how bad republicans handle any issues and Bush administration.

Cornyn voted Nay last time.

That's very sad...I really hope we can make the 60 votes next week otherwise my heart will break for this country...

I cried when the DREAM Act didn't get enough votes in 2007. I was in my dorm room. I didn't even have the drive to go to class after. It just destroyed me, so now I'm doing everything I can to further our cause. If I'm going to shed tears next week, I hope they will be tears of joy.

WE ALL KNOW HOW YOU FEEL!!!

This time around, its a bigger fight. Even if it does not pass with 60 next week. It could be brought up again either as a stand-alone or part of CIR.

i think so too, because Obama knows if he is not going to pass right now, then there will be no chance at 2011 since republicans gain more seat. 2012 like Sen Garham said? Bullshit man!!

DA User whatever made you think that we could get 60 votes EASILY!?!?
