So what should we do? Lets call DURBINs office. They called my Senate office and the law is very clear. If you were brought to the United States undocumented and lived your entire life here and wanted to stay here. the law said you had to leave the United States for 10 years and then apply to come back. They asked me if there was anything else under the law. and I said no. that was it. It is because of that that I introduced the DREAM Act 15 years ago. This DREAM Act said that young people under circumstances like Terezas. who were brought to the United States at a very young age. were raised in this country. were finishing school. and who had no criminal record. would be given a chancea chance to become legal in America. the DREAM Act.
