We, the undersigned, ask Congress and the President to enact the DREAM Act.



The DREAM Act is a bipartisan proposal, which would create a pathway to citizenship for thousands of young students who were brought to the United States years ago as children. If Congress fails to act this year, another entire class of outstanding, law-abiding high school students will graduate without being able to plan for the future, and some will be removed from their homes to countries they barely know. This tragedy will cause America to lose a vital asset: an educated class of promising immigrant students who have demonstrated a commitment to hard work and a strong desire to be contributing members of our society.



Over 24,276 supporters in 50 states have signed their name in order to make a difference, add yours below to become one of them.

Only the youth can prevail in making this dream come true. We need everybody to call their senators nd tell them to vote and support the Dream Act. This is the only way for every undocumented youth to persue their dreams, and for doors of opportunity!

I don't agree with any reason to NOT pass this Bill. Our generation depends on this, as well as future generations to come. The U.S. is a melting pot and will continue to grow with every new culture that embraces the American way of life.

I support the dream act just cause you are from somewhere else doesnt mean that you should not be allowed to the same privlages as anyone else. Our young minds are a terrible thing to waste and anyone who opposes such an act obviously has not had to walka mile in an immigrants shoes....

Martin Luther King Jr. once had a dream, now all the immigrant students have the dream for the dream act to pass. don't deny these kids for a better education, better life, and better future. every immigrant comes to the United States for the AMERICAN DREAM but these people are putting more obtacles to these kids that only want to have a better education, people like the arizona governor putting this ridiculous law it is just frustrating to me to see how pathetic that women is. let the dream act pass everyone should have the right for their AMERICAN DREAM.

ps: just like George Lopez say "we ain't going NO WHERE".

My parents are here in this country because they wanted to provide us a better life with higher education. Higher education that was not offered in the small town where their from. We are begging for this act to pass so we can continue our education with no obstacles. WE ARE FIGHTING FOR A CHANCE AT EDUCATION!!! Isn't that what they teach us in school. Go to college, get a degree, become someone, get a good job. Well, how is that possible? We came here for a chance, a chance to make something for ourselves and what we ask for is obviously too much!

My son is a US High School graduate (suma-cum-laude), however, due to our immigration status we are paying high tuition fees for his college degree, we are underpaid workers trying to pay bills.

Although it is a great burden to us, we struggle to pay his tuition because he is not eligible for any type of scholarship, grants or funds due to our condition, he is a great kid with unbelievable talent which we do not want to be wasted so we are paying for his college education. However, if his situation is changed he may be able to get a student loan, this is his 3rd year in college. During his 1st year @ college he made the Dean's list, he has a college GPA of 3.8 or over.

Due to his situation he can not drive so he has to commute by bus for 2 hours transferring from one to another and it's wearing him down because it's tiring.

We all migrated to this great country a few years ago due to the political and economical situation from where he came.

He speaks english, spanish and italian fluently.

It's a shame to waste talent like this, which is the case of many many young children out here and when I see their struggles I think about my own son.

What a shame.

LIKE MOST IMMIGRANT STUDENTS THEY WANT TO FINISH SCHOOL. OUR PARENTS CAME HERE TO GIVE US A BETTER LIFE. THEY HAVE TO WORK REALLY HARD TO GIVE US EDUCATION WE NEED.THE UNITED STATES IS JUST THROWING AWAY EDUCATION FOR THE IMMIGRANT STUDENTS. WHATEVER HAPPEN TO THE SAYING, "THE CHILDREN ARE THE FUTURE?" IF WE ARE THE FUTURE, THEN GIVE US THE RIGHT TO CONTINUE OUR CAREER. IM SICK AND TIRED OF PEOPLE SAYING IMMIGRANTS TAKE AWAY JOBS FROM THE LEGAL PEOPLE. WE DONT TAKE AWAY ANY JOB FROM THEM, ITS NOT OUR FAULT CITIZEN DONT LOOK FOR THE HARD JOBS THE IMMIGRANTS DO. ALL THEY DO IS SIT AROUND AND DO NOTHING ALL DAY BUT TO JUST COMPLAIN THAT WE TAKE THEIR JOBS. THINK TWICE BEFORE YU SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT. YU WILL NEVER SEE A CITIZEN OUT IN THE HOT SUN BUSTING THEIR BACKS JUST TO FEED THEIR FAMILY.

The Dream Act is a great idea and I think it should pass.

It's just matter of raw justice, those non-regular inmigration status students are not loittering as matter of fact they are trying very hard to improve their lives in every sense intelectual and economical. Let's make justice to them and pass the act right away for god sake!!!

A very good friend of mine who was brought here as a child and is stuck in the legal limbo that is at the roots of this organizations purpose. She asked me to back the cause and for her I would do anything within my powers. She is a wonderful person, always upbeat and optomistic despite her hardships of living in the states without family, unable to get a job or support herself due to the laws. It is a horrible situation to be in and I wouldnt wish it on anyone. Something should be done.
