DREAM Act Voted Down
In a stunningly close vote, the Senate has voted not to pass the DREAM Act. DREAM would have provided a path to legalization and green card status for thousands of undocumented children who have graduated high school and who qualify for college or the military. For reasons unknown, DREAM Act supporters could not muster the votes necessary for a simple majority. At present, it appears we'll be waiting until after the election before any major reform comes to pass.
