Re: DREAMers Hope To Pressure Congress With Religious Arguments

Re: EWI (Entry Without Inspection)

Re: Sen. Durbin Is Set To Revive DREAM Act Fight in This Congress

He's a class act, that Dick Durbin. Also, hopefully Lugar will get re-elected; that guy's got real intestinal fortitude for unflinchingly supporting our cause. Either way, this won't pass the House.

Re: Poll : Are you on 'Overstay' or 'Crossed the border'?
