The whole purpose of this website is to inform people of each requirement that is needed for a young person to receive the benefits of the DREAM act. Some of these requirements include being in the United States for at least 5 years without leaving. This bill does not guarantee them citizenship right away but what it does is it lets them stay in the United States if they agree to either join the U.S military or attend college.
