DREAM ACT
Mr. SCHUMER. Finally, Mr. President, let me say a word about the
Dream Act. Earlier this week, my friend, the senior Senator from
Illinois, came to the floor to update the Senate on the progress he is
making in his negotiations with Senate Republicans on an agreement that
would provide a significant investment in border security in exchange
for the Dream Act.
As I have said in the past, Democrats support real border security.
We will be happy to join with Republicans to pass legislation to secure
our border in exchange for the Dream Act. Those talks continue to make
good progress. I hope we can reach an agreement soon.
