The Dream Act dies on Senate

The Dream Act bill who was supposed to be voted on, Saturday December 18 didn't pass. It received only 55 votes out of 60 needed. Forty-one senators voted no. The dreams of many illegal immigrants died along with the act, this act would have allowed illegal immigrants to apply for citizenship if they entered the U.S as children, graduated from high school, and have been in the United States for five years, but now their hope has gone.
