This just in -- a new Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimate of the DREAM Act shows that the legislation would increase revenues by $2.3 billion in the 2011-2020 period. After accounting for spending:

CBO and JCT estimate that enacting the bill would reduce deficits by about $1.4 billion over the 2011-2020 period.

More analysis soon, but here is the full CBO report:

WHEN YOU CALL SENATORS AND REPRESENTATIVES LET THEM KNOW THIS INFORMATION!!!

Calling the DREAM Act “a $20 Billion Giveaway to Illegal Aliens” Congressman Steve King (R-IA) issued a letter Wednesday afternoon demanding that the Congressional Budget Office release its analysis of the legislation’s cost.

When calling senators, don't forget to mention the CBO estimates. This is a very important finding that we can use.

EDIT: chlehqls, you beat me to it. I just typed the same thing lol
