Last week, Senator Harry Reid added the DREAM Act as an amendment to the Defense Authorization bill to be voted on this week. The DREAM Act is a proposed law to grant legal status to undocumented students who enroll in college and they get reduced in-state tuition fees and federal student college loans.
The Senate’s leading Democrats are saying: The typical immigrant who would benefit from the DREAM Act is as all-American as you can get.
Main Street United States does not grasp the concept of all-American to illegal immigrants. Forget about giving government comfort assistance to illegal foreigners and concentrate on Americans. There are 9.5 percent of us unemployed and an enormous deficit edging our country into further recession or worse.
