Arnold's Veto Can't Stop The DREAM

Governor Schwarzenegger has -- once again -- vetoed the California DREAM Act. More than 1,000 signatures on the Courage Campaign petition, and the dedicated activism of students all across the state were not enough to convince Arnold. Instead, he chose to side with the extremist right wing.

Join the Courage DREAMers group now -- we're already starting work on keeping the DREAM alive despite Arnold's reactionary veto.

The DREAM act's dream, however, has not been vetoed. We still believe in making a world-class education a possibility for all Californians -- no matter what their family immigration history might be. The DREAM Act wouldn't have taken away opportunities from anyone. No California student (native-born or otherwise) had anything to lose had Arnold signed the bill.. Arnold vetoed it solely because of his ties to the extremist right wing. The truth is: the more students we have in California, the better it is for our future.
