========================= END NOTE =========================
I was proud to vote this week to approve this law because it is time
to provide stability to the recipients of DACA.
The Dreamers are our friends and neighbors.
They are Americans in every sense of the word--except on paper.
I had the honor to be a professor at a college in my district,
Modesto Junior College.
One of my young students was studying to be a pharmacist.
But because her family had brought her here when she was only three
months old, her future is at stake.
Stories like hers are common, especially in my district, in the
Central Valley.
More than 10,000 young people are eligible to receive their
citizenship by the Dream Act.
Dreamers deserve this opportunity. It is time to pass the Dream Act.
Presidenta de la Camara de Representantes, exijo que el Senado tome
accion al respecto a la ``Dream Act''.
Con orgullo, esta semana vote para aprobar esta ley porque ya es
tiempo de darles seguridad a los recipientes de DACA.
Los Dreamers son nuestros amigos y vecinos.
Son americanos en todo el sentido de la palabra--menos en un papel.
Tuve el honor de ser un profesor en un colegio en mi distrito,
Modesto Junior College.
Una de mis estudiantes era una joven que estaba estudiando para ser
farmaceutica.
Pero como su familia la trajo a este pais cuando tenia solo tres
meses, su futuro esta en peligro.
Historias como la suya son comunes, especialmente en mi distrito en
el Valle Central de California.
Mas de diez mil jovenes son elegibles para recibir ciudadania con La
``Dream Act.''
Los Dreamers merecen esta oportunidad. Es tiempo para pasar la
``Dream Act.''
The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mrs. Fletcher). The gentleman from
California will provide the Clerk a translation of his remarks.
