Pray that it passes!

please help us to keep our hope alieve that there will be a answer

The Dream Act is the only hope that my brother and I have to be able to go to college. So please give us the chance to show that we have to much to give!!

These kids deserve a shot at their future just as much as ours do!!! Remember the " no child is left behind" rule it applies to them because they have been in these schools since 1st grade!!

We need this

I think that since most of these children have never been in their own contry, other than birth that they should not have to return. Most of these children are the smartest and the more willing people in the US, they should be able to persue their dreams!! Please pass this act we need it in the country we live today!!

We have waited many years for something good to happen, please let this be the one thing that brings back hope for millions of people. I,too came to America as a young child learned the language, went to school made knew friends but as i got older i knew that my DREAMS were cut short. i want to continue my education but here i am now thirty years old waiting for something good to happen...its the DREAM that we all hope for. sometimes i feel trapped and i don't want to feel that way anymore!!!

YES! this is something that i think should have been done awhile ago! many excellent students have worked very hard to graduate high school. I too am one of them, who came here when i was 9 years old and spoke no English whatsoever. I have recently graduated high school and i plan to go to college and study education to give back to my community, but unfortunately i am undocumented and can't be certified as a teacher when i graduate college. I am 100% supportive of the DREAM ACT! i know many other students who have worked very hard! WE deserve some rewards for that!

I'm glad that President Obama can give us the opportunity to continue our education and feel free in this wonderful country.I hope that I can be a legal resident or citizen to be a successful person in this country and to help my parents with all their needs.

this is the least attempt in providing some hope to individuals that try to escape the effects of the capitalist choke hold!

just like everyone else hopping for the dream act to pass i finished high school wen i was 16 in 2003 i started college but like all of us i dint qualify for financial help, my mama is a single mother of eight kids im the second oldest if anybody had it hard its her i would like to go back and finish my degree so i can pay her for everything shes done for us because there is no love like moms we are americans and like so we will never give up so please give us a chance to be free and successful thank you.

I believe this dream act will help immigrant students like me to find our paths to a better life here in The United States Of America.We will get an opportunity like everyone else gets one to go to college.There are very talented students out there that were brought here by their parents and don't have the needs to go to college. LET'S SUPPORT THIS DREAM ACT FOR MILLIONS OF TALENTED STUDENTS OUT THERE!

The DREAM Act is the only hope of being a normal citizen in thhe united states as we were taught to be since we were young. It would aslo help law abiding, graduates and future graduates,who want to benifit and serve in the society we were taight in, reach their goals and dreams we were taught to have all our lifes but for most of us the end of the road is at the end of high school?...we think what now?, what could i do with all the talents ad knowledge i learned in school?.So i urge and hope that mine and everybodys only dsream and hope that the DREAM Act passes,passes.

This bill should be passed immedietly. I hate that the graduating classes of now and the past are unable to continue their education because of a simple status. As an undocumented student, I do nothing but study, I would like to go on to college but sadly i am afraid that is not possible. I can not afford school. I recently tried to sign up for the ACT, but i was discouraged when they asked my legal status. I don not want my dreams to end here.

I significantly fear that with my restrictions and limitations as an undocumented student my dream of being succesful in the only country I've ever known will be deffered. I fervently and humbly implore our congress to give us the opportunity to pursue the American Dream without restraints. We wont let you down.

The Dream Act would change the life of millions of people who are coming into this amazing country seeking a better life for their loved ones. People who are having acces to higher education are the people who become leaders in our communities, and are the ones who make a diference in the world.
Our youth is desperately seeking this opportunity to demonstrate they are capable of reaching the standards to education that any documented person can.

I think we should pass the Dream Act Bill!!

I hope that the Dream Act will be passed. There are so many undocumented people and student that are here to study and do big things but some times there are issues dealing with SSN. Hope this Act will be aproved so that many students will go out and achieve thier goals and dreams. So they may have the same privillage as every american in this counrty.

I understand that some of us are here illegally in this country but that is by no fault of our own. As a student I hope to go to college and recieve many degrees, and hope this is possible for all undocumented students living in the United States if America. Growing up in a country that is not one's home country is difficult, but adapting to one culture all your life then learning you have no future there is even more difficult. I hope the Dream Act is passed and keeps the young and innocent were they belong, in their new home country , USA.

There's so many students from my former high school who couldn't go to college because they didn't have their documents. Unfortunately for many, their parents made mistakes and now these kids are paying for their parents' mistake. This is so sad. Hopefully, Obama can sign this bill and give these people a chance to prove that they can succeed, live their lives and get an education.

I have graduated from Susan E. Wagner H.S this year 2010 & I never thought that going to college was going to be so hard because of my legal status.
There's too many barriers along the way, so far many have not stop me but this one.
I have hope this act will be passed, & I supported 100%.

I have a incoming freshman student who came to Philadelphia, PA when he was five from Haiti. He is in Temporary Protective Status - he has been offered a full scholarship for four years - he is studying engineering - we just learned that he can not get the scholarship until the Dream Act goes through - His mother cannot afford for him to got to college - he has worked very hard to get where he is and we do not want him to lose this opportunity. He needs the Dream Act to pass immediately!

This is a "no brainer".... it needs to be done!

My parents brought me to this country for a better life. As of now, I am nobody along with the thousands of other students like me. We are non-existant and that's sad. The Dream Act will enable us to further our education and become somebody. Our generation could provide so much intellect to this country.

Makes sense for those whose future depends on our making it possible for them to succeed. We all benefit. Support the Dream Act.

I'm all for the Dream Act because it applies to me and a whole bunch of other people in this country and it is very difficult to try to start a life without being able to have a job or license. Attending college is one of my goals and I want to be an Art Teacher but without a residency I cant start to study for that.

I am hoping for congress to pass the dream act because as well as thousands of other undocumented students, i have dreams and goals. I am trapped in a box, I don't know what to do anymore, I am out of options. I just hope that I atleast make those who love be proud of me for trying, because thats all I can really do, just try.

all i want is to be able to pursue a further education because i have worked soo hard and i deserve as much as any american born student to do something with my life. i hope to God that this will happen for us because its the most important decision of our life. at no point is it our fault that we are in this position and i hope that the drem act will pass.

Like Obama said its Time For a change. So man up and just do it. It isnt fair and if its not done its unamerican. This country was made for people to have freedom. everybody thats here at one point in time came from a different country. So why cant they have a chance like our relatives from the past? Im an american and everybody is created equale. so if you know whats right from wrong than you should do the right thing. And make this happen!

The Dream Act will serve as a stepping stone in immigration reform. What better way to set the foundation than by setting legislation that supports and ensures that education is a primary skill set.

It is critical this act be passed. What a loss for the country when so many young people are effectively locked out of furthering their education.

I belive and based on an own experience that this law needs to be passed so that thousands of students like myself or children may have the opportunity to make a better feature like me I've been in this country since i was 8 months old and Iam a high school graduate and never done any drugs or any crime but I want more for my society not just a statistic of Another hispanic graduate so please pass this law and like a mention before give us a chance thakyou for you're support.

I've been here since I was four years old. I have done all my schooling here. I'm currently in college but struggling to pay tuition since in AZ they charge out of state tuition. In my community college its 600 plus books for TWO classes! Its ridiculous and I can't even work. I've never broken a law, I'm a good person. I give back volunteer every week. We get punished for actions we didn't make. None of us know any other place other than were we are, this is our home. Remember this country that was formed by IMMIGRANTS. Think before you hate because if you go back in your family tree some where in there you'll find someone like us, who also came to make a better future and thanks to them you are here. SUPPORT THE DREAM ACT!

i hope this act is passed on, i want to have a career in the futere, and im hoping in becoming a great plastic surgeon, this is a country were dreams can come true..!!!

All we want is a good future.. all we want is to work for this country and to live freely.. WHAT IS SO WRONG WITH THAT?!! PLEASE PASS THE DREAM ACT!! ONLY GOD CAN CHANGE OUR DESTINY.

It is crucial that this is approved, not only would people benefit, but so would the country.

More people with access to a better education more success and progress for the country where they live!! DREAM ACT should pass soon.

I have been in this country since i was five years old, i need a future for myself. This is my country i know no other. please pass this law this year. I have not broken any law.... please make this happen......

How is it right or fair to punish a child for something they had no say or control over? Does the immigration system need to be changed, yes. Does punishing hard working, honest people really do any good? I think there is a lot of stigmatism behind the term "illegal immigrant" that needs to be overcome instead of indulged through biased or ignorant opinion. Let's pass this thing and not only help secure the future of our children, but of our nation.

we as students are trying to contribute in this country i think we need support and a good way to support as is approving the dream act..

approve the dream act theres too many kids that need it

The Dream Act proves that there is hope, hope for a brighter, more certain and secure future. I used to be in the same shoes before, my family and I came to America when I was a little child, unknown to the circumstances I was placed in. I know what it was like to be uncertain of how to go to college or even if I got my degree, how will I get a job? But by God's goodness, my prayers were answered and I was able to become a permanent resident and I now possess a bachelor's degree and started my career in social services. So my heart definitely goes out to those who are in need of the Dream Act to be passed. Let's do this!

Lets make it happen. Obama lets do it for the minorities. OYE Mira it about that time.

This is going to help so many youth become participating adults in the country that has raised them and educated them. Many don't know any other country but this and feel the same love and loyalty for the United States that any child born here does.

Register and sign, it makes a huge difference!!!

This is just one of so many moving stories. As an educator I have had several students whose families have come to our country to try to make a better life. They work hard, pay taxes and often are taken advantage of. Some have documents, some undocumented. But we most remember that we are a nation of immigrants.

I know an amazing young man who is currently enrolled in a private college. He is the kind of person we want in our country; hardworking, brilliant, creative and of wonderful character. He deserves the right to live his life to the fullest. He was brought here by his parents and through no fault of his own, has had such a difficult struggle to get to a college. He will become someone famous one day...I just hope it will be here in the USA and not some European country.....

I have a son-in-law who came here as infant in 1989, his parents never applied for residency for him. He never knew he was not a citizen until he went to get a job during high school and didn't have a social #. He has been a here since infantcy, completed high school, and now is stuck in "limbo" It is just a shame that his parents never took the time to get him papers. Now his is scared he will be deported if he tries to apply for residency. He and my daughter have a 10 month old son. I hope this act passes to law, I am sure there are other people who have the same problems.

Please allow these children to finish their educations. They made it this far, please don't take away their futures. Allow them to graduate and move on with the legalization process at the same time. Give them HOPE!!!!

a child shouldnt have to pay for their parents bringing them here unlawfully. They should have a chance to better their lives.
