I am a strong supporter of the SOLVE Act. introduced by Senators KENNEDY and MCCAIN. that would help keep many Latino families together while their petitions for permanent legal residency are processed. The legislation would help hardworking Hispanics and others become legalized citizens and would offer a new temporary worker program. While we work to improve the immigration system. we must enhance the education of Latino students. Many Latino students face social. economic. and language barriers that can prevent them from receiving the topquality education they. like all American students. deserve. We must increase funding for English proficiency programs. programs to help lowincome students attend college. and programs to help parents involve themselves in their childrens education.
