Check out my blog post on the uphill battle for the Dream Act at the Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund website:
Many GOPers are planning to vote against the Dream Act.
They’re not thinking.
All those undocumented students that would be legalized become voters for life. Voting for the Dream Act is ultimately a selfish act for a GOP legislator.
But they’re stuck in the old closed-minded thinking about immigration that believes the undocumented shouldn’t be rewarded for becoming educated and productive taxpayers. To them, the dream is to send people back to their countries and cut off any new access to the border.
That’s not my dream. Is it yours?
