Miami Republican files new DREAM Act in Congress - Page 21

Passing of a bill is a slow process so being patient is key.

Yes, you are correct. This particular bill was referred to three separate committee. The only way a bill can bypass House committee vote is through a discharge petition which requires House majority vote (218 votes).

Haha Alipac has always had a self inflated sense of importance. They don't carry any clout .

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the Miami Herald reported that Congressman Carlos Curbelo (R-FL) plans to introduce the “Recognizing American Children Act” which — like the DREAM Act — would enable some undocumented youth to remain in the country.

Luiza Duarte Tanuri, Member of United We Dream’s National Leadership Committee and organizer with Make the Road NY said:

“United We Dream will not support the Recognizing American Children Act because we don’t have time for symbolic gestures for a few when our entire community is under xenophobic attacks by political candidates and from Barack Obama’s brutal deportation regime.”

This is what pisses me off. Democrats and organization like United We Dream actually pretending to caring about the Dreamers. All these people care about it the politics and Keeping the Dreamers in limbo so they can keep using us as pawn. They lost my support and respect. There is absolutely no reason to oppose Raca. Poor Curbelo is fighting people's comments on FB, defending us and calling us Americans, and raising above Politics introduced this bill while United We Dream complains. Boycott United We Dream! Support Curbelo and Raca! No more donations to United We Dream. I regret supporting them!

I think this is an old article back when RAC Act was introduced under Barack Obamas presidency. UWD hasn't released a statement about this bill under this administration

They have to reintroduce the bill since it's 2017. 2016 or 2017 nothing has changed. Why would they change their opposition to the bill now. This bill is no different from Dick Durbin's original bill. There is no excuse to oppose it. If they supported it they would have come out by now and say yes we support it. We the people (Liberals/ Conservatives) are getting screwed over by Politicians. I honestly believe besides Dick Durbin, Jeff Flake, Luis Guiteres, Mcain and Graham no other politician really cares about the Dreamers. United We Dream is listed as non-profit but is founded by George Soros. George Soros has connections to politicians (Hint Democrats) and will be driven by the Poltical Agenda. Point being (DREAM ACT must be pass by DEMOCRATS) otherwise it's no good. My fellow Dreamers, Wake up and smell the coffee. Get out of the Matrix. This is the closest we will get to legalization and I am afraid Democrats and bullshit organizations like United we Dream will be our biggest hindrance.

Well this went nowhere..

Relax man, nothing will happen before April. We are not the only issue in this country.

Before April, before the summer, before 2018. I've heard it all before.

This is the order things will happen if they happen and pass.

1.) Healthcare Reform.
2.) Tax Reform
3.) Immigration Reform

Since we are guessing Trump will bring his border bill in play, Raca maybe acted on sooner or in step 3. Either way, Curbelo has mentioned he hopes to get it passed this year.

Trump asked Congress for $1.5 billion to start building the wall. Ask the Dreamers, we'll pay for that.. just give us residency in return
