We like to empower undocumented students to continue their education, come out of the shadows and organize.

The high court let stand a state Supreme Court ruling which says the state law does not conflict with federal immigration laws. By doing that, it sets up a virtual safe passage through the state Legislature for the California DREAM Act…

Mr. President Barack Obama,

As I write this letter to you, more than 12 million of undocumented immigrants remain in the shadows within our borders. So be it, with my outmost respect and with the hope you might get an opportunity to actually read this letter before the year ends…
