John, when I first introduced the Dream Act in 2001, I had no idea I’d still be fighting to pass it more than two decades later.
But I will stay in this fight as long as it takes -- because Dreamers are Americans in every sense of the word, except one, and it’s long past time for Congress to make that right.
The program that gives temporary deportation relief to hundreds of thousands of immigrants known as Dreamers is under threat in federal court.
With a Democratic Senate and President Biden’s support, we are closer than ever to a permanent pathway to citizenship for Dreamers. But the GOP has blocked this crucial bill for over twenty years now -- and it’s going to take all of us speaking out to get it over the finish line.
John, will you sign the petition right now to show your support for Dreamers?
It's not just the right thing to do for Dreamers, it's also in the best interest of our communities and our economy. Passing the Dream Act will give Dreamers the stability and security they need to thrive, and it will strengthen our country as a whole.
Getting this done needs to be top priority -- and I’ll be working as hard as I can to finally make it happen.
Can I count on your support as we work to pass these protections for Dreamers?
My best,
Dick Durbin
