Should we support the DREAM Act?


The DREAM Act would give undocumented students a path to citizenship, provide the means to obtain a Social Security number and work, and be able to apply for student loans to pay for college. However, there are problems with the bill such as requiring undocumented students to complete two years of college without access to grants like Pell Grants or having to serve in the military for two years to gain their citizenship. Do you think we should support the DREAM Act?

We shouldn't support the DREAM Act because of the military service and lack of access to grants.
We should support the DREAM Act and work to change the problem areas.
We should support the DREAM Act as it is because we won't be able to get anything better.
