Ed. Note: This is the eighth in a series of posts from top Administration Officials on the importance of the DREAM Act. Read Education Secretary Arne Duncan's post here, Labor Secretary Hilda Solis's contribution here, Commerce Secretary Gary Locke's post here, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano's here, a post from Dr. Clifford L. Stanley, Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness, here, Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack here, and Attorney General Eric Holder's post here.
As the head of the White House Office of Cabinet Affairs, I work every day with the President’s Cabinet to advance his policy priorities. Few issues trigger the depth and breadth of support from across the Cabinet as the DREAM Act. This landmark legislation would strengthen our economy, our competitiveness, our workforce, our national defense, and our homeland security.
Having worked for the President for the past six years, I know first-hand his deep commitment to the DREAM Act. As a State Senator in Illinois, he helped pass that state’s version of the DREAM Act. As a United States Senator, he was a co-sponsor of the legislation.
Over the past few weeks, members of the Cabinet have spoken eloquently and persuasively about the importance of passing the DREAM Act.
