Very insightful posts.....I totally agree we need to do more than we've done in past years to get this bill passed this time. I'm wondering if anyone has personal contacts with officials in local school districts who are directly affected by this issue. I say that because I think we do need voices that go beyond individual phone calls, email, or faxes. These are powerful people who can speak to this issue; maybe even University Presidents or student provosts.
I'm hoping to meet with one of our local lawmakers who also has a radio show soon. I think as much as we are the real faces of the DREAM we can also lobby influential people in our local communities to help push the issue. I'm also in houston so maybe we can chat sometime and possibly work together on a strategy out here.
