Obama Calls for DREAM Act Passage

HeadlineMay 04, 2012

In other immigration news, President Obama has renewed calls for congressional approval of the DREAM Act, which would grant children of undocumented immigrants a path to citizenship. Obama spoke on Thursday at the White House.

President Obama: “'No' is not an option. I want to sign the DREAM Act into law. I’ve got the pens all ready. I’m willing to work with anybody who’s serious to get this done and to achieve bipartisan comprehensive immigration reform that solves this challenge once and for all.”
