Hello,
I'm new here - it is great that the DREAM act is coming up quickly. I am the director of a Social Services agency in California. I have been promoting advocacy of the DREAM act on several collaborative committees that I am on (as a side note I am shocked by the number of community leaders who don't even know what the DREAM act is !!) . What I need to know, and am having a hard time finding, - what is the official Senate number, is it called an ammendment at this point , or legislation or ? - is there a specific name of the DOD amendment or bill ? If I were to write official sounding letters / e-mails, etc. coming from groups, it would help to know what is the official wording I should use. Do you have a set letter you could link me to ? Also as an individual I was going to do some calling or e-mailing - it seems like it might be a good idea to target the Senators who are running for President with the push being that it is a national issue - even if I'm not in their state - with of course the military push for the conservatives. Does that sound right ?
Thanks very much !
