From DreamActivist:

Quote:
The DREAM Act is not a substitute for comprehensive immigration reform, which is much needed to restore the strength and competitive status of the American economy. Ideally, the DREAM Act should be one component of a comprehensive reform bill. But if comprehensive action is delayed, Congress should not hesitate to pass legislation that provides immediate relief to children who should not be denied the opportunity to secure an education and contribute to the American economy. The Dream Act offers a fair bargain benefiting both children and the country. As you work to pass it, you will have our full support.
The letter endorsers include CitiGroup, American Express, Morgan Stanley, Pfizer, and others.

Cool seeing Murdoch supporting DREAM act. The less partisan it is, the better the chance of passing.

You know, this is cheesy but we must not lose hope. It seems that relative to other years, we have a larger and more influential alliance for the passage of Dream.
