We must act now to pass a Dream Act. Very simply, the honor and integrity of this Chamber are at stake. The young people who would be covered under the Dream Act are Americans in all but name. They came here as children. They grew up as Americans. They go to our schools, serve in our military, and support our economy. They work hard and they give back and they believe in the American dream. Deporting Dreamers would be cruel and irrational, inhumane, and, very simply, repugnant to basic American values. Just think of Jonathan Gonzalez-Cruz. He is a college student at Southern Connecticut State University.
