Speech #1090118497

I commend these editorials to the attention of my colleagues. and I will at the end of my statement include them. The committee also adopted an amendment to include the bipartisan Development. Relief. and Education for Alien Minors Act. called the DREAM Act. This provision will allow immigrant students to attend college and become permanent residents if they follow the rules established in the act. It will free eligible students from the constant fear of deportation. while allowing them to work so they can afford to pay for college. By our bipartisan committee vote. we hope to extend Hispanic young people greater educational opportunities so they may realize the American dream and achieve their potential. The committee agreedwisely.
