What happened

Here’s what really happened on Saturday: laws didn’t change. Nobody destroyed your dreams. Nobody said that you will never be recognized. Nobody claimed, “this is it, your fight is over.” This is as far as the Dream Act has ever been taken. And you took it here.

How to make sense of it

There is no “due by” date on the Dream Act. You can either leave the battle in the hands of the willing and hope that the law will arrive in time, or you can join the ranks and fight.


Dream Act in Congress this week!

Hunger strikers sleeping in the morning.

Next week the U.S. Senate will vote to attach the Dream Act as an amendment to the Defense Authorization Act. This is our chance to pass the Dream Act now! Take the next ten minutes to make yourself count by calling the following key senators:

Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) email
Sen. George LeMieux (R-Florida) email
Sen. Olympia Snowe (R-Maine) email
Sen. Scott Brown (R-Massachusetts) email
Sen. Mark Pryor (D-Arkansas) email
Sen. Ben Nelson (D-Nebraska) email
Sen. Robert Bennett (R-Utah) email
Sen. Sam Brownback (R-Kansas) email
Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-Texas) email

Dial 1-888-254-5087. If busy, call switchboard directly at 1-202-224-3121. Ask to speak with one of the senators on the list and you will be transferred.

Say or leave a message:

"Hi, I am calling to ask that Senator _______ vote for the DREAM Act amendment to the Defence Authorization Act. It is the common sense approach to revitalizing the economy and strengthening our armed forces."

Make no mistake, every single call counts!

Spread the word with your friends and family.
