DREAM Act Discussed in Fort Wayne
This video simply presents two different arguments regarding the DREAM Act; one man opposing the bill states that "people are working hard to send their kids to school now, paying for it out of their pockets and some of them can't get grants, some of them can't get scholarships. But, this may move these people ahead of them." I think that this statement again, as I have stated in previous posts, has a sort of alienated view of immigrants. This view seems evident through this statement and it made me wonder how allowing more people to go to college would actually impact their chances of obtaining the grants or scholarships. It also seems presumptuous of him when he explains how hard people are working to send their kids to school now, as he seems to imply that parents of non-citizens may not be working as hard.
