Real Impact of DREAM Act Much Worse than Reported
"Democrats have announced their intent to bring the DREAM Act up for a vote in the lame-duck session of Congress while they still control both chambers, mobilizing Republican opponents who have labeled the bill as an unwarranted attempt at amnesty for illegal aliens," Homeland Security Today reports. "FAIR argued that the number could be much higher due to fraudulent applications. The organization further declared that 870,000 illegal aliens would immediately become eligible for legal status under the bill while 2.6 million illegal aliens could receive legal status within six years of enactment. An additional 6.2 million illegal aliens could gain US legal status under the bill within 10 years of its enactment."
