I’m very sad that the DREAM Act was turned back. Our nation has been known for hospitality to immigrants. The least we can do is give hospitality to children of immigrants. It is Biblical to treat strangers living among us as native-born (Lev. 19:34).

In the case of children of immigrants it cannot be a question of amnesty. For it to be a question of amnesty, they have to have done something wrong, which they have not.

I am one conservative Republican who will be putting pressure on the new Congress to fix the current travesty of justice which the DREAM act would have started to address.
