Dream Act 2010 - Undocumented Students in the United States

Currently, undocumented students are in an extremely difficult situation because

they must either remain in the United States undocumented where there is very little chance for them to receive a higher education or high-paying jobs, or they must return to a nation that is foreign to them, which often offers them no chance to advance. Although comprehensive immigration reform is far off, there is still a glimmer of hope. A bill known as the DREAM (Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors) act would allow undocumented students who graduated from U.S. high schools, entered the country before the age of sixteen, and have good moral character to obtain legal status in the United States while pursuing a degree in higher education or serving in the military. Since its introduction in 2001 the bill has slowly begun to gain support, but has yet to be approved by both the House of Representatives and the Senate. Overall the bill would not only help undocumented students, but the United States as a whole. Of course the students benefit because they would be able to pursue their dreams, but the country would benefit through an improvement in the economy as students would be more willing to invest and high school drop out and crime rates would decrease because the students would have a promising future ahead of them. Why not give these students a chance?
