It is not
that we need to know anything more to solve this. We have been talking
about it for a very long time. I want to encourage Members of this body and in the House who are
involved in the negotiation to come to an agreement and provide
permanent protection for the Dreamers before next Friday so that we can
protect this community, which is frightened because
they are so worried about being deported or losing their ability to
work, to go to school, losing the ability to protect their families. But it is more than just protecting people because they are frightened;
it is protecting them because, as I have seen in Virginia and in every
State, they so enrich this country. The first version of the DREAM Act, it is hard to believe, was
introduced in 2001.
