Do Democrats really want a DREAM Act? 

Democrats have introduced 20 versions of a DREAM Act that would make lawful status available to undocumented immigrants who were brought here by their parents when they were young children. None of their DREAM Acts got the Republican support needed to make it through the legislative process.  

Was the problem that Republicans didn’t want to help DREAMers? I don’t think so. 

Democrats could have passed a DREAM Act without a single Republican vote during Barack Obama’s first term in office, and they didn’t do it.
