Colorado Dream Act mentioned on Fox News!

I just saw Colorado Governor Chirs Romer talk about his support for the Colorado Dream Act on the show "Happening Now" on Fox News at around 12:50 PM ET. Not a lot was said because it only lasted about 3-5 mins. He just said that allowing these students in-state tuition will help the state of Colorado by bringing in money and reducing teen pregnancy and gang violance. He also mentioned that this would not be a burden on tax payers because only about 500 students would benefit from it per year in the state of Colorado.
