Posted January 2018
Dr. Eduardo J. Padron, President of Miami Dade College, explains why America needs Dreamers. Congress has the power to decide the fate of Dreamers, nearly two million young immigrants who came here as children but could soon lose their place in America.
If Congress doesn’t pass the Dream Act soon, these young people could be arrested, jailed, and deported out of the country they are contributing to every day, the only country they have ever known.
