DREAM Act Revived for Lame Duck Session
The Daily Caller reports:
Sen. Harry Reid is reliving a DREAM by putting the partisan immigration bill onto the legislative calendar during the 2010 lame-duck session.
A day after President Obama met with the Congressional Hispanic Caucus and told its members that he backs the bill, the Senate majority leader appears confident enough to allow the issue to stand alone rather than be incorporated into any other legislation.
Previously Democrats tried to incorporate the span style="color: green;">DREAM act< as well as the repeal of “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” into the National Defense Authorization Act.
According to proponents, the DREAM act is the first step to comprehensive immigration reform as well as granting children of immigrants and students amnesty.
