President. 14 years ago. I introduced a bill known as the DREAM Act. My friend and colleague Senator LEAHY was the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. and for the last 14 years we have tried to pass this basic law. and here is what it says: If you were brought to the United States as a child. and you were undocumented in America. but you have lived here without committing any serious crime and finished high school. we will give you a chance. If you will agree to at least complete 2 years of college or enlist in Americas military. we will give you a path to citizenship. I offered this legislation because so many young peopleabout 21/2 millionliving in this country were brought here when they were infants. small children.
