The Dream Act

I found an article in Texas Tribune about the Dream Act, and this topic has been hitting news nation-wide and state-wide. The Dream Act (Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors) is for undocumented immigrants to give them permanent status. In order to qualify you must be student of good moral character, who came to the US before the age of 16, obtained a degree from an institute of higher education or served in the uniformed services for at least two years. I think that young people should not be penalized for the behavior of their parents in entering the US illegally. These graduate students should be given a chance to work, and government should use them as human capital.
