Dream Act 2009

For those of us supporting and fighting for positive change for immigrants, the re- introduction of the DREAM Act (Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors Act) to Congress on March 26, 2009 is good news. The act would allow young people who are undocumented to qualify for residency status, opening the doors of college and possible citizenship for thousands of deserving young people. Most have been here since they were young children, have graduated from high school in the U.S., worked, and are a fabric of our communities in every sense of the word.

Watch this bill, support it, and urge President Obama to make it a priority in 2009!

Change.org has great information on why this act is so important.
