The Dream Act and its benefits:
The dream Act proposes that illegal students would have a chance in attending college at regular cost and after two years of college have a chance at citizenship. his isn't just an amnesty to legalize any immigrants it is a special ACT that would help students to be able to become citizens. It would provide students the opportunity to utilize their degrees to the fulles. It has been stigmatized on how illegals are criminals, but that is not true these students were immigrated by their parents at a young age in which they had no choise in coming here by choice. These students are students with good academic standings that shouldn't be denied to attend college or denied the right to better themselves. Just like any other students they just want the ability to afford college and be able to use the knowledge that is offered to the through universities to better themselves and their family. They also pursuit the "American DREAM" to be successful in a country that allows that to happen much easier than in their home country that they have left behind. There are subjects in which have lived in the U.S. all of their lives and don't know how to speak spanish similar to the book fluid border, were Zali was born in GRO,Mexico, but doesn't speak spanish. If these students were to be deported they could not survive in their native country because they have not aquired the skills to survive in that country. They have aquired the skills to survive in this country which is greatly different. They might even consider themselves Americans because they have no recolection of their native country.
Why deny students to better themselves? Is it because of competition that others might face? Is it the fact of change in policy for immigration? Or is it because the government wants to limit who can succeed and aho can't?
These are questioned that need to be awnsered in order for change to occur in this FREE country.

Wow, this video was honestly very touching. I feel horrible for those who are going through this. As the video mentions, "this country is built on immigrants." I feel education is the key to move past our ignorant past. Although, i do understand if you are not "legal" you are being paid for by the citizens who do in fact pay taxes, but i do not feel that we should with hold someone from recieving and education.
I do agree with the movement of the Dream Act. It gives great opportunity for those young immigrants that didn't have a choice to come here and they are making the best of their situation. Some may say that it would be taking "jobs" away from citizens, but in an economic sense, it would only advance this country and its workforce. I think the U.S. relies a great deal on the secondary workforce (farmers, factory workers, etc.) that it doesn't want these kinds of Acts to pass.
