Re: DREAM Act in Congress
Good point.
I suppose my point was going off in another direction.
...
However I think that I missed something. Will this bill only be in effect for a certain amount of time or will it become permanent policy? Personally I'd think that the former would make more sense as it would give children living here currently illegaly/undocumented (take your pick) a path to legal citizenship hopefully without encouraging more people to enter illegally with sole intent of abusing the legislation (not sure how exactly, but just in general concept).

Another question: If children can become legal citizens so long as they fulfill the requirements does that mean that the parents who probably have been taking care of them this whole time will also become legal citizens?

Anybody able to clarify?
