That’s not helping them, brian, it’s going to end up hurting them, and us!
[/quote]CA Renter,
How will this bill end up hurting the individuals who will benefit from the so-called Dream Act? I am against illegal immigration – but I’m confused as to why keeping educated people or those who serve on our military would leave them worse off.September 21, 2010 at 11:20 AM #607359TenaciousSDParticipant[quote=CA renter]

People intentionally break laws, but it’s usually assumed that getting caught cancels the benefits.

Applying for U.S. Citizenship During Time of War
Any immigrant who enlists with the United States Armed Forces can apply for expedited naturalization. Because the United States is in a time of war, an immigrant—documented or undocumented—who serves in active-duty status may apply for expedited naturalization through military service. Immigrants who enlist during a time of war can apply for naturalization after only one day of service and have the citizenship application fee waived.
…..
To apply for naturalization through military service in a time of war, you must serve in active-duty status and honorably complete your term of service. If you do not honorably complete your term of service, you will lose your citizenship. [/quote]The option to serve in the military for citizenship already is in place. I hear about in the news from time to time, about how XXXX active duty personel, from YYYY # of countries, became citizens.
Plus when they are done, they can get military benifits of college education, job training, housing, military contacts, etc etc etc.
We can debate the merits of the DREAM act, but ‘go home’ or ‘DREAM act’ are not the only options available to these people. Regardless if that is the way it is being protrayed.
