I'm going to talk about the Dream Act in my speech class and I have to end it with getting everyone to take some sort of action.

Any Petitions or things I can do to get people to take action.

Also what things should I talk about for my speech, I need resources from legitimate institutions...so if anyone has any links about Immigration.

You could ask them to sign a petition, call and write to their senators and urge them to support the bill, spread the word about the DREAM Act and how important it is.

As far as resources, youguysareawesome's link gives you a lot of information. And I would include how the DREAM Act will benefit the economy and strengthen the military, but I'm sure you already know that!

Good luck

I actually did my speech on the same subject. I got really good grades too! This was my conclusion that told people to take action:
Quote:
What can we do? We can start by taking a liberal position on illegal immigration when we talk to other people about it. Don’t join in with the anti-immigrant sentiment, but fight it by not supporting their ideas. We can write letters to Congressmen and women or give them a call and tell them to support bills that legalize illegal immigrants. The next thing we can do is elect a Democratic president into the White House this November whether it is Obama or Hillary. When comes time for Senate and House elections, choose Democratic senators and representatives because the Republicans are the ones that blocked immigration reform from ever being passed in Congress.
And if you need links to sources, check J6's "weapons of mass information" sticky in the General forum.
