Tony and BrianImagine having to say goodbye to your wife and child against your will. Imagine telling your little boy he's going away for a couple months on vacation when the reality is it will be years before you see him again. Tony doesn't have to imagine. Click the video to the right to watch Tony's heart-wrenching story.

Tony and his wife Janina came from Poland 18 years ago. They were married, started a business, had a healthy happy son and were living the American dream...

...Until 1 week ago, on June 8, 2007, when Janina was deported.

Watch their video and ask yourself, is THIS who CNN's Lou Dobbs is afraid of?

When Dobbs spreads lies about immigrants having leprosy or stokes fear by using extremist anti-immigrant rhetoric, he leaves out the stories of the families that are ripped apart by a broken and inhumane immigration system. Dreams Across America is about telling the stories that Lou Dobbs doesn't want you to hear.

So watch the video above and then click below to join the dreamers on the train, let them know you stand with them.

Get On The Train

The Dreams Train comes to Chicago this weekend where it'll pick up Tony. He's going with the rest of the Dreamers to DC, where he'll tell anyone who will listen what it was like to spend his first Father's Day without his six year old son.

Will you join Tony and the rest of the Dreamers on the train to help ensure that families like Tony's don't get torn apart?
