US Immigration Reform: DREAMers
What is the DREAM act?
DREAM Act, Development Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act was first introduced in 2003. Its later versions came up in 2007, 2009 and 2011 respectively.
DREAMers are kids who were brought in the U.S. illegally.
They grew up in the US and earned their high school diploma here but won’t be able to attend college or get driver’s licenses or other government recognition due to their illegal status.
They can be deported anytime to the country they were born in.
They were brought up here and consider the US as their home.
They inherit their status from their parents who are illegal.
Who are DREAMers?
Does the DREAM act include a path to citizenship?
Those who grew up in the US when they were 15 or younger and under age 35 and have been in the country at least five years before the DREAM act is implemented as a law can apply for a temporary legal status for 6 years, which can then be utilized to obtain a permanent legal status provided the individual meets certain conditions.
The DREAM act includes a path to permanent legal residence for these kids.
Can they live like citizens?
DREAMers can drive, work, qualify for state grants and take part in almost all activities that legal residents in the country can do except traveling abroad for an aggregate of at least 365 days. They don’t qualify for Pell or Federal financial aids.
Will the DREAM act be passed?
The Republicans favor DREAMers but are not happy with the Senate version of the immigration law passed with a majority of 68-32. They are working on their own version of the DREAM act tentatively named KIDS act, which does not offer a pathway to citizenship for DREAMers.
How will DREAMers benefit the country?
If DREAMers will get better prospects to earn and have a future in the U.S., they will contribute to the economy through the taxes they will pay and the income they will generate. In addition, the criminal justice and social service cost will also come down.
