***For better or for worse in the next 72 hours we could very well know our future in this country, it's all good to be optimistic and hopefully about the outcome. I urge that we all be humble, calm and brace ourselves for whatever the outcome may be. God Bless***

Inside source: There will be a motion to invoke cloture ( 60 votes needed) on DREAM in the senate on Tuesday with 48 hours of debate, final vote possible on Friday.
