Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act passes House, Senate has yet to election on it

With a vote that came down almost entirely on party lines, the United States House of Representatives passed the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act. Young adults who came to the country as children are given an option using the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act. The DREAM Act; creates a “path to citizenship”. The DREAM Act, isn’t assured yet, however. The Senate has promised a filibuster. Payday cash advances may even be in the future for those invovled with the DREAM Act.

Hoping the DREAM Act will be a ‘path to citizenship’

The DREAM Act is a bill intended specifically to target children that are brought to the United States as illegal immigrants before they’re 16 years old. Applying through citizenship through the DREAM Act can be a wonderful thing. Young adults can be able to obtain a "temporary" status for six years. At that time, it would be required that these people go to college at that time with their own money. They could go into the United States military too.

Trigger the DREAM Act would create

The debate over the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act has been very heated. About 2 million illegal immigrants would be allowed to come to the country legally which would be giving them "amnesty" some say. The immigrants being able to pay in-state tuition for college is something that the majority are angry about. Proponents of the bill, however, point out the bill targets only young adults who weren’t given an option in coming to the country. There would be no PELL grants and no welfare given to these immigrants so they could "prove themselves" during a six year "trial period" showing they should be within the country.

Election status of DREAM Act

There may not ever be a law with the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act which approved the House of representatives with a 216-198 vote. It is possible that a filibuster might occur in the Senate. That would mean the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act might never pass. The Education Secretary and Homeland Security Secretary support the DREAM Act. It was made public. The Congressional Budget Office has estimated that if the, Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act, does pass, the increased economic activity and reduced enforcement costs would decrease the federal deficit by $1.4 billion. The Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act will go into law if it’s able to pass the U.S. Senate. Obama said he would sign it too.
