I repeat what I said to the majority leader and the Speaker of the
House this morning at the White House: Put a clean Dream Act on the
floor in both Houses. It will receive bipartisan support. I believe it
would pass by significant margins in each House. We could remove the
fear of deportation and give peace of mind to 800,000 Dreamers if only
our leadership would put the bill on the floor. It is that simple. If
we don't see a clean Dream Act in September, we, as the minority, are
prepared to attach it to legislative vehicles in the fall until it
passes.
