Reid: ‘We Need The People Of America To Rise Up’ For Amnesty Bill Wednesday, May 11, 2011 By Eric Scheiner
(CNSNews.com) - Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) is calling on Americans to ‘rise up’ and let them know how important the DREAM Act is to them.
Reid made the comments at a confrenece on Wednesday in support of the measure that would allow qualifying illegal aliens to obtain legal residence status.
“As was said yesterday in El Paso by the president, we need the people of America to rise up and indicate to each of us how important this legislation is,” Reid said.
“I believe that the people in America need to understand that these young men and women who want to be educated, who want to be able to serve the military. It’s good for everybody.”
Senator Reid along with Senators Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) and Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) say the Senate will bring the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act to the floor for a vote. The measure previously failed to pass during the lame duck session of the last congress when both chambers were under Democratic control.
The bill would allow qualifying illegal aliens to obtain legal residence status.
President Barack Obama addressed the previous failure of the DREAM Act and called for it’s future passage during his speech on immigration in El Paso, Texas yesterday.
Ping!
Careful, Harry, they’re going to rise up for something, alright...
