In the second part of this look at the debate surrounding the DREAM Act, KWBU's Becky Fogel spoke with Duke Machado, head of a local Republican group that seeks to build support for the party amongst Latinos. Machado does not support the DREAM Act saying it fails to provide a comprehensive solution to the entire population of undocumented immigrants in the United Sates. Yet the question remains: If efforts to provide legal status to a select group of individuals has failed to gain traction, how will legislation that provides legal status to a much broader population succeed? Machado argues that the answer lies in offering a documentation program that may not lead to citizenship.
