I don't care to citizenship. Like someone said, we're months from expiring and deportation protection is gone. I rather be green card holder for life than be deported.

Agree, DACA is ending in only 5 months. I will take what I can.

Senator Durbin’s statement on SUCCEED Act:

"Unfortunately the Tillis-Lankford bill falls short. First, it requires Dreamers to sign an order waiving their legal rights in advance, which could allow them to be quickly deported without a day in court, based on little more than allegation from the Trump administration that they fail to meet the bill's strict requirements. In contrast to the bipartisan Dream Act, their bill excludes tens of thousands of Dreamers who came to the United States as children, have lived here for decades, and have clean criminal records, based solely on arbitrary date cutoffs."

Now that I think about it does this give Republicans a reason on not voting on the DREAM ACT? What if this was all a scheme to not get anything passed?

Good. They need to get behind the Dream Act and offer amendments if they want to change something. If a majority agrees, the amendment will get added to the bill. Otherwise it’s a waste of time bringing up a bill like this roght now.

Is her referring to arrival age cut-off being 16 in Succeed VS 18 in Dream?

fuuuuuck.. all the shit you accomplished during the 5 years with DACA aint shit then. i am disappointed.

Everything you have accomplished in the last 5 years should show in your bank account. I was making $7/hr and the employer (who knew the status issue) was taking out taxes - mind you he had never asked for ITIN or a SSN so he was taking out taxes and not filing them! I went from that to $36/hour!

I pay more in taxes now than my annual income back then!

because i know w/ DREAM ACT, we get to skip the conditional PR part because we already got the Bachelors/Masters Degree. So once we initially apply for the program we can immediately change status for full PR cutting the 10 yr to 5 year --- > citizenship.

Is this confirmed? Wouldn't be so bad then, kinda like a normal GC process no?
