featured-img AP 'Dream Home' To Open For Illegal Immigrant Students In Texas


Posted: Mar 21, 2015

Free housing will soon be available for DREAMers—illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. as children—attending the University of Texas-Pan American (UTPA).

The Dream Homes initiative, the latest project by nonprofit organization Sand2Pearl, will provide rent-free housing to undocumented UTPA students in South Texas. The home, located within walking distance to UTPA’s campus, will open in August and house seven undocumented students during the 2015-2016 academic year.

"They’re all going to get degrees, and I’m going to encourage them to get graduate degrees and encourage them from there."  

“The number of Dreamers who will benefit in August will be seven, but the students who will ultimately benefit will be countless," Sarah Chavez, executive director of Sand2Pearl, told NBC News.

are paying for the majority of their health care, housing, food stamps, welfare to name a few. Now they're getting a free home!!! How about giving that free home to a veteran who was injured/maimed for protecting the very freedoms and laws the ILLEGAL ALIENS broke.

This is a lie the right has been spreading for years. Seven bright college students are being given housing by a non-profit not the government.

The Obama administration, by rewarding illegal behavior on the part of ILLEGAL ALIENS, is just encouraging more illegal behavior and breaking of our laws, which he himself seems to relish in doing. If anyone thinks this is just a one-time deal, I've got a bridge to sell you...

Exactly! Anyone with the desire for truth and aware of - knows that ILLEGAL ALIENS receiving

financial benefits on several fronts that the American taxpayers are paying for - and some of these American taxpayers are refused those same benefits!

Obama does relish in the braking of our laws and has an in-you-face attitude the whole while disregarding and disrespecting OUT constitution. SICK OF THIS IDIOT!

If they are "Dreamers" aren't they now considered.... - sm

to be documented? Many states are now even offering in-state tuition to undocumented students, including Texas. Foreign students come to the U.S. all the time for college. Why should it be any different for those coming from Mexico and Central America? We want the brightest to come and stay and strengthen our country like immigrants have always done.
