The article "Undocumented immigrants push Gov.Andrew Cuomo to Support the Dream Act" By Erica Pearson is about how immigrants are strongly trying to convince Governor Cuomo to pass the Dream Act.Many are trying to convince him by using social networking sites.For example,they have used twitter and Facebook to ask him many times if he is going to support the Dream Act.A coalition of immigrant groups sent the governor a letter about the issue.Governor Cuomo has yet to respond to these acts.
The immigrants just want education they want a better life then where they came from.For example in the quote"We are looking for TAP. It would give a lift, to get financial aid. ... We are expecting better things to happen this year"said Alarcon, 18, a student at LaGuardia Community College whose parents brought him to the U.S. illegally from Mexico at age 11.They just want a change there are a lot of hispanic people in the U.S most of them still don't have there green cards.Also the same person said “The governor should be focusing more on the Latino community,” I couldn't agree more.Even though the governor should still focus on other problems paying attention to the latino community would help a lot.
All in all I disagree with the author's opinion because it is leaning towards the "I believe that the Dream Act should not exist opinion".That's not what I think I believe that we should all have education it doesn't matter if you come from a different country you should let someone feel welcome.I'm not saying that all hispanic people should move here I'm just saying that when someone goes to country its for a reason.Most just hope that in that country they could start a better life and become a better person.Just like Latinos that's all they want life with health and education.Isn't that what we all want?
