I found your post very interesting. I also agree that the US National Government should pass the Dream Act, which would allow achieving illegal immigrant high school students to continue their education and not worry about their immigation status. Many families come to the United States in search of the "American Dream". Unless the US Government passes the Dream Act immigrant parents and their children will work side by side in the same low paying jobs.If the immigrant has children who are born in the United States they will qualify for medicaid and ther government programs. This will put a strain on our economy and the cycle will continue. Right from the beginning many immigrant students face the language barrier and culture shock. They have to work twice as hard in school. Students from Mexico have to grasp the educational concepts in spanish then "translate" them into english because by third grade everything is in english. YES! Reward them with their residency for all the hard work. Hopefully, the US National Government passes the Dream Act proposal.
