Dream Act 2010

Dream Act 2010

Senator Harry Reid pushed the vote for Dream Act for next week. He hope this will give the Pro-Dream Act voters to try to gain more Senators on their side. They need 60 votes to pass the Bill. The Dream Act, when pass, will allow ONLY those illegal immigrant under the age of 30 (also came to U.S under the age 16) to gain rights to stay in U.S. This is a great way to help those who came to U.S as children and who had done nothing wrong. This bill does not reward the children but give them the chance to live the normal life that many American children take for granted. Like Loans for School, the rights to Drive, open a bank account, pay taxes, work, etc..
Many opponents of the bill feel cheated by this Bill. But their main point is that the law is being broken by allowing the Dream Act to pass. This is not the case when considering the illegal immigrants are children who came unknowingly by their parents into U.S. Where does the blame fall... the driver (Parent) or the passenger (child) when the car hit another vehicle?
Also the so call "Mother's of America" claim that the Dream Act burden the American Tax payer and will take Jobs from Americans. Instead by passing the Dream Act, it will help increase the U.S budget as many of these kids as require by the bill to attend 2 years of college (without FEDERAL GRANTS), pay taxes, and do not commit any unlawful acts for 5 years to qualify for Dream Act. Umm...giving these kids rights will also not help those lose their jobs when they already do not have jobs. The unemployment rate is up 10%. Instead these ambitious children will most likely create new jobs. As many are top students.
SO PASS THE DREAM ACT. TELL your Senators to vote and get the needed 60 votes.

P.S. For those Opponents who keep shouting AMNESTY! Remember what the definition is. AMNESTY is giving guilty party innocence. The illegal Children are not guilty of anything but being born from wrong doing parents. Also this bill does not allow the Children to help their undocumented parents, relatives, and so on who are already living in U.S. By U.S definition the parents cannot be come to U.S for at least 10-25 years once deport it.
