“While Republicans refused to bring the DREAM Act to the Floor yesterday, House Democrats will continue to stand with DREAMers and advocate for a permanent legislative fix,” said Whip Hoyer. “We need to pass the DREAM Act now – not months from now. We need to provide real assurances to DREAMers that they’ll be able to stay in this country they love and call home.”
