Larry Kissell is a "moderate Democrat" http://www.govtrack.us/congress/person.xpd?id=412287
From his website biography: http://kissell.house.gov/about/index.shtml
Foresight sent Larry in search of a career change. Education had been a huge part of his life, and Larry felt the need to make a difference through teaching. His mother Virene had been a teacher, and his wife Tina also worked in the local schools. In raising his own family, Larry realized that the next generation simply wouldn't have the same opportunities waiting for them upon graduation that his generation enjoyed. Something had to be done.

Couldn't find anything about his stance on Dream Act or even an opinion or statement on the current immigration climate/issues, but according to this website he is up for reelection and is being challenged by a far right republican. http://charlotte.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/anti_immigrant_bias_rolls_on_locally/Content?oid=947492
