The Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act (colloquially known as "The DREAM Act") is a bill proposed in the United States Senate by Sens. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) and Richard Durbin (D-IL) that proposes the repeal of Section 505 of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996, which would remove responsibility for illegal immigrants brought to the United States as children by their parents without their own consentual decision to immigrate in such a manner.
The bill would allow for a path to legality for persons who were brought illegally to the United States by their parents as children.
