Immigrants DREAM on: Neither Obama nor Romney will help you

Views:892
@ReasonVids

Undocumented students who now have conditional, permanent residency thanks to the DREAM Act have been protesting Mitt Romney and his stance on immigration, or lack thereof, across the country.

"He advocates for self-deportation, he is against very logical legislation like the DREAM act, like deferred action," says Sofia Campos of DreamTeam L.A.

ReasonTV caught up with some of the protesters in downtown Los Angeles, and questioned them on their views of Romney, Obama, and a realistic future for immigration policy.

"President Obama has had a record number of deportations in his administration," says Pablo Reyes, president of National Pursuit of Dreams, "he passed deferred action, and we're thankful for that, but we know it's not the end battle."

About 2:30 minutes.

Produced by Tracy Oppenheimer. Camera by Mark Wagner.
