Introduction The "Dream Act" is legislation that was originally introduced to the U.S. Congress in 2001 and in 2009 it was re-introduced after being co-authored by Republican U.S. Senator Orin Hatch of Utah and Democrat U.S. Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois.

The Act is designed to allow young Latinos – who are technically illegal immigrants – to avoid deportation and become American citizens through a specific legal process.

Hence, the Dream Act would allow Latinos who at present are illegal – and who were under the age of 15 when their parents brought them into the United States and are under the age of 30 now – to remain legally in the U.S. for up to six years if certain requirements are realized.
