In his most recently published opinion piece, Rep. Lamar Smith (R-TX) blasts Barack Obama, members of his administration, and liberals everywhere for inaccurately describing the DREAM Act.For instance, DREAM Act supporters claim that only children would benefit from the bill even though most DREAM Act proposals would extend amnesty to individuals up to 30-years-old, and some proposals don’t even set an age limit! Likewise, supporters of this backdoor amnesty piece of legislation maintain that illegal immigrants can’t go to college without the DREAM Act despite the very real fact that in most states not only are illegal immigrants taking seats in classrooms that would otherwise be filled by equally qualified U.S. citizens, they are doing so on YOUR dime through public-funding, scholarship and in-state tuition rates.
