Fight For DREAM Act Continues So More May Serve

The Defense Authorization bill was defeated today 56-43, as not a single GOP Senator agreed to open debate on the bill. By not allowing the Senate to open debate on the bill, the DREAM Act would not have a chance to voted on as an amendment. Senators Durbin, Reid and Inouye, however, vowed to keep fighting for passage of the DREAM Act.

I hope this Act will one day pass. There is nothing wrong with a kid who was brought here to the USA illegally and raised as an American, to be part of this great nation. It is a whole lot better to let kids who want an education in college, than to see one who has that same chance but blow it all off by working at McDonald's or Burger King.

So you support criminal activities and reward criminals?

[TheMvplayer10]

CALL EACH OF YOUR SENATOR. SAY THAT YOU FULLY EXPECT HIM OR HER TO SUPPORT THE DREAM ACT.

TO REACH YOUR SENATOR, CALL 866-957-2612 AND YOU WILL BE DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO THE SENATOR’S OFFICE. NOT SURE EXACTLY WHOM TO CALL? PROVIDE THE OPERATOR WITH YOU ZIP CODE AND THE OPERATOR WILL DIRECT YOU TO THE APPROPRIATE ELECTED OFFICIAL.

HAVE YOU ALREADY CALLED? CALL AGAIN!!

I respect your positive view towards this helpless generation- a generation with hands tied behind and lips with taped around. Hunger, starvation you do not hear as society discourage such topics. What a great SHAME calling them “anchor babies”, “sins of their father"

“The harder it gets the sweeter at the end”- statement such undermines the fact that each day pass by a star goes to sleep without the education they deserve or with one less slice of a bread the mother could'nt give

For 48 years - my understanding, those defense bills were passed without interruption.

Wake up America. Wake up. The war between these two parties is taking us down. Without compassion, no way out from the empty flat box –which where we are now at.

Open your heart; give a room to the angel who can guide us thru time of great danger.
