A Field of Broken Dreams <b> Carlos D. Conde </b>

Social issues on their way to becoming legislation have a way of becoming identified by a catchy metaphor that captures their objectives. It’s usually intentional, like the DREAM Act, an apropos label if there ever was one. And if there ever was a piece of legislation that merited passage, it was this, with all the elements to ease some of the problems created by theinflux of illegal immigrants and provide a positive, if partial, solution to this illicit diaspora besetting the nation.
