We must recognize that the Asian Pacific Islander American community is diverse. not only in language. culture. and foods but in education and socioeconomic levels as well. That is why it is so important to provide talented students who have clearly embraced the American dream the incentive to take the path toward being a responsible. contributing member in our civic society. I have cosponsored the DREAM Act of 2007 to give undocumented high school students who wish to attend college or serve in the Armed Forces. an opportunity to adjust to a lawful status and pursue these goals. If it becomes law. the DREAM Act would help Asian Pacific Islander Americans and others triumph over adversity. As future generations of Asian Pacific Islander Americans continue to strive for excellence in our educational system. economy. and communities.
