[Blindtlk] Information about dreamers needed

[Marianne Haas]

Good Morning,
I have to agree.  I also came here legally.  We already have an unemployment
rate of 65 per cent of employable blind people.  Instead of focusing on
this, we should focus more on making new technology, needed for employment,
accessible to the blind, so there are more jobs blind people can do.  As a
Teacher,  I also believe that we need to spend more money on the students
with special needs and on accommodations for disabled Teachers.  Lastly,
President Obama had no right to push the Dream Act through.  The
Constitution provides that Congress makes laws.  In this case, President
Trump was correct to send this to Congress.

Best Regards,

Marianne Haas

Hmm. Really? Why didn't they enter the country legally? I'm asking because I
entered the country legally back in 1965 along with my family. I would think
I should have more rights than these people who didn't bother to take the
necessary and legal steps to enter the country legally... Sounds like they
just came in to be a burden on the tax payers and anyone who has ever worked
legally is aware of that tax bite on their income. If this was a debate I'm
starting to see which side I would fall into on this one

Something about this just doesn't make sense so I'm obviously missing some
important facts on this subject.
