Friend--
Yesterday, Senate Republicans succeeded in blocking the DREAM Act from coming up for a vote.
It was an emotional day for everyone, but as Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said on the floor of the Senate yesterday, "it is not a matter of if we pass the DREAM Act, but when." And Illinois Senator Dick Durbin, the number two leader in the Senate, said yesterday that the DREAM Act is his "top priority."
Energy for the DREAM Act is stronger than ever, and the young people at the center of the movement are already regrouping and mobilizing to pass DREAM as soon as possible.
Watch this quick video of what they had to say right after the vote yesterday:

Our leaders in Washington now know that we are organized, mobilized, and ready for action.
In this week alone, DREAM Act supporters generated hundreds of thousands of calls and faxes to Congress. Yesterday, in coordination with our friends at Trail of Dreams, Presente.org, Change.org, CREDO, Reform Immigration FOR America, Sojourners, NCLR, DREAM Activist, and United We Dream, we helped personally deliver 65,000 petitions to key Senators.
Watch our video, and then call your Senator to explain why you are fighting so hard for the DREAM Act to pass:

As Florida DREAMer Gaby Pacheco told CNN, "We are a movement now, and we will not rest until we reach our goal."
Thanks again for all of your hard work -- we won't stop fighting, and we know you won't, either.
