“We had the opportunity to express ourselves and tell the legislators our opinions,” said Paulina, who asked that her last name not be used. “Why we need the Dream Act… We learned that not everyone loves us.”


"The students met with staff of U.S. Rep. Sue Myrick, a Charlotte Republican, and Sens. Richard Burr, a Winston-Salem Republican, and Kay Hagan, a Greensboro Democrat, among others.

Burr does not support the Dream Act and feels there are better ways to improve graduation rates, Ward said.

Hagan does not support the Dream Act, but staff members said she was willing to consider a similar proposal if it were part of a larger comprehensive bill."


They feel there is a 'better way' and are 'willing to consider a similar a proposal if it were part of a larger comprehensive bill'...wish these people would be more clear on what they mean...they just keep going around in circles losing money every day a DREAM is not passed.

When it comes to immigration, all the NC politicians really suck. Maybe durbin should put some emforcement measures in the dream act.
