Later that year. Senator REID. who just spoke. brought the DREAM Act to the Senate floor. The Senate Gallery was filled with young people. undocumented people. who came for that bill to be considered wearing caps and gowns. They wanted to make it clear they were not looking for a free ride in America. They were looking for a chance. But despite the fact that 55 Senators out of 100 voted for it. we did not get the magic number60and the DREAM Act did not become law. Senator REID joined me. with 22 other Democratic Senators. asking President Obama to create this DACA Program so these children could sign up. The President did. It is an amazing success. What has happened to these DREAMers when they are given a chance to have a future in America. when they are not afraid of the knock on the door and being deported? Well. what has happened? Amazing things have happened.
