Campaign Unavailable

We're sorry, this alert is no longer available.

The short explanation of this alert was:

Before adjourning for Congress' Thanksgiving recess, a bipartisan group of thirteen Senators officially introduced the DREAM Act of 2005 (S. 2075). Introduction of the DREAM Act in the Senate is the first of many steps toward creating a path to higher education and citizenship for immigrant students.

It is likely that the courageous group of Senators who reintroduced the DREAM Act will be targeted by the anti-immigrant lobby. It’s important that we show appreciation to those Senators who were willing to act compassionately in the face of vocal opposition. Please thank the Senators (listed below) for introducing the DREAM Act, and help balance out the mean-spirited anti-immigrant forces.

The sponsors of the DREAM Act of 2005 are:

  • Richard Durbin (D-IL)
  • Chuck Hagel (R-NE)
  • Richard Lugar (R-IN)
  • Norm Coleman (R-MN)
  • Larry Craig (R-ID)
  • Mike Crapo (R-ID)
  • Mike DeWine (R-OH)
  • Russ Feingold (D-WI)
  • Ted Kennedy (D-MA)
  • Patrick Leahy (D-VT)
  • Joe Lieberman (D-CT)
  • John McCain (R-AZ)
  • Barack Obama (D-IL)

Note:
The email systems of some Senators may reject your thank-you email if you do not live in their state.
