I do, sign the petition here:
http://www.petitiononline.com/dreamact/petition.html
These kids deserve the opportunity for higher education and eligibility to join the military. They did nothing wrong, it would be a shame to throw away years and years of study (k-12) just because their PARENTS made mistakes. . .make the right decision and support this bill. Call your representatives and sign this petition. It’s time to bring these bright minds out from the underground economy and let them achieve the American Dream. They are NOT criminals and most of you know they’re not. Can a child really commit a crime??
And contrary to popular belief, MOST of them don’t have a way of fixing the situation they are in, the doors are all shut from where they stand. If you don’t believe me do your research, I did.
Thanks for your time and do the right thing.

Get your facts straight people!! Under current law and even after something like the Dream act gets passed, their parents are NOT able to stay. And the proof is in cases like elvira arellano (recently deported leaving her kid here)

Yes, I support the DREAM Act. The parents are illegal, but the children had no say so in coming the US. If they are good students and law-abiding, and spend the majority of the childhood here, they should have the opportunity to be on the fast-track to citizenship.
Our problems with immigration surround more of the adults than do the children.

I support their right to an education in their own country and on their government's dime. I am completely against the Dream Act and my senators are fully aware of that. It's more than silly little mistakes we're talking about here...it's millions of dollars in education at the cost of American tax payers...legal citizens...the ones that established and have kept this system going. The only ones entitled to use of it. The quality of our schools are deteriorating and I would never support such an act.

Its not the fault of the US citizen to pay for the mistakes of other countries and Im saying other countries because i bet there are not only Mexican illegals but illegals from all over the world.
Illegal is illegal = that means its against the law!
Thats why each country has its own laws and not only because people who are illegal want to have their way... we are suppose to agree wth it.
Sorry but i think the Dream Act is unfair to us US Citizens..... because after that whats gonna happen.... they are gonna have kids here and theyr are gonna want chip, medicaid, food stamps.... and who is gonna pay for that... we are!
>>>>>> I know of alot of people in the US who are not eligible for government help even when they really need it!
and people who are not even citizen get help =0S how is that possible????

no i do not support the dream act. my daughter wants to be a dr. do you know how much money that is going to cost? do you know how many years she will have to go to school? i'm not rich, so there for my daughter may not be able to follow her dream. why should illegasls get a free education when i have to pay out the ying yang to educate my daughter. my 2nd daughter wants to be a nurse and the 3rd one wants to be a vet. no i will not support any dream act for illegals when poor american kids are having a hard time getting the money up to go to collage. i'm not being hateful, just honest.

Not no but ----no. Just because they are born or brought here does not make them legal. I am for stopping all Illegals from having these anchor babies. If you are here illegally you kid is illegal as well. We have spent enough tax money on them for their education. Let them go home and use this education to change what goes on in their country. If they would stand up and demand their rights at home like they do here it might be a place they wouldn't want to leave.

Nope I refuse to support any type of amnesty until the borders are secured and the majority of the illegals are deported.
There are many well respected colleges in Mexico and other countries if they want their education. Research that, I did.

Hell no. Their parents are criminals. The sole reason they exist is so their parasitical parents can have an excuse to remain in this country. When their criminal parents are apprehended and returned to Mexico, the kids need to go with them. Let them get their educaton in a country that caters to their language skills. Their being here is part of a larger fraud. Get them out of here.
Edit:
Elvira Arellano was deported because she continued her criminal ways after she illegally crossed the border. She had previously been tossed out of this country because she is a petty criminal.
I signed the petition as "All-Illegals Go Home."

Here's your chance to get your facts straight. You've signed another anmesty bill if you signed this piece of garbage.
Read about it, and then call your senators to get this stopped before it's too late...

They need to go back and get proper school visas. What is wrong with that? They are illegal. Illegal is illegal. There are crimes anyone can commit and claim 'it is not thier fault.' The students should blame their own parents for their inconvenience of getting to the back of the line BEHIND students who and wishing and waiting to come here legally. They deserve it more.

Yes. It's a way for them to give us some competition. Americans don't want this to pass because they are scarred. I am not scarred. They deserve it they proved to us that they have all the intentions of making this country better.
