DREAM Act to get one Last Push During Lame Duck Session

[HS News]

Sen. Harry Reid has said he is going to make another attempt at passing the DREAM Act during the lame duck session of Congress. Reid, who was re-elected last week due to strong support from Latino Voters, will make a push in the final days of the 111th Congress.
The legislation would allow thousands of young people who attend college or join the military to become legal U.S. residents. Under the bill, the young people must have come to the U.S. before age 16 and have lived here for five years. At least two years of military service would be required.
Advocates of the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act - better known as the Dream Act - say Reid has a better chance of passing the bill in the lame-duck session than he will when the new, divided Congress is sworn in this January.
