Their goal is comprehensive immigration reform, including earned legalization for the 12 million people in the United States who, like the young man's brothers, work hard to pull their families out of poverty. Republican Senator Lindsey Graham from South Carolina and Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer from New York are crafting an immigration reform bill to match President Obama's campaign promises to fix the broken system.

But the young man is understandably focused on an existing bill, the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act, which would allow students like him to become permanent residents if they came to the United States as children and attend college or enroll in the military for at least two years.

Another great article underlining the SIGNIFICANCE of the Dream Act. I can hear the drums rolling..Immigration is NEXT in line. It is in GOP and Democratic Party's interest to pass legislation because if they don't BOTH parties will suffer dire consequences in the midterm election. Those representatives with MAJOR hispanic constituents should be aware of this because this is a growing population in this country.
