The DREAM Act will help hundreds of thousands of young people brought to the United States by their undocumented parents legalize their status. The brief Lame Duck session of Congress may be the last chance to pass this important protection for these children and young adults. The New York State Immigrant Action Fund urges you to sign this petition to the House and Senate leadership demanding passage. Sign even if you have signed other DREAM Act petitions in the past.

Pass the DREAM Act During the Lame Duck

Greetings,

On the weekend before the November 2 elections, I was happy to see Senate Majority Harry Reid promise to bring the DREAM Act to a vote during the Lame Duck session of Congress. The DREAM Act will allow young people brought to the United States as children to obtain legal status and give back to our country.

I hope Congress keeps Senator Reid’s promise and passes the DREAM Act before it adjourns.
