Goes is now a university student in aryland, but he ay soon have to leave the country. " I still want to continue with y college education and I want to be able to study here and go to edical school," he said.
Goes is one of thousands of young illegal iigrants who grew up in the United States and are now studying at Aerican colleges and universities. He is doing well in his studies, but he is fighting deportation to India, a country he left with his parents when he was just 14 onths old. They were deported ore than a year ago.
" If I was to go back to India I would just feel like all of that would have gone to waste because here at least I a still able to go to college," he said.
Iigration is a divisive political issue in the United States with soe 11 illion people in the country illegally. One eleent of the debate is the hundreds of thousands of undocuented iigrants brought to the United States before the age of 16. Pending legislation known as the DREA Act (移民法案) would give the a chance to becoe legal residents if they coplete two years of college or join the ilitary.
ilanie Schwartz, a politically conservative student at the University of Texas, explains why soe Aericans oppose the legislation.
" We think it' s unfair that students who are illegal iigrants would get a fast track to citizenship, while people who did coe here legally wouldn' t have those sae opportunities," she said.
" The question is legalization or not," said Jon Feere, who also opposes the DREA Act. He is a policy analyst with the Center for Iigration Studies in Washington and is concerned about the act' s effect on the econoy. " There' s a lot of uneployent in the United States right no And there are already any legal iigrants who are already here who are desperate for those jobs," he said.
But supporters of the DRE A Act say well-educated iigrants would help the econoy. Raul Hinojosa is an iigration research analyst at UCLA. " Not letting the contribute to the econoy would not only lose all the financial investent we have already ade in these youths, but we would lose literally trillions of dollars of potential value because they want and are ready to contribute to the US econoy," he said.
That' s exactly what Yves Goes wants to do ?finish school and becoe a doctor. He says without the DREA Act, any students' dreas will be lost. "They are studying at Harvard, they are studying at UCLA, the top universities , and they all have bright futures and because of the syste they are going to be told to go hoe, go back to a country they don't even know," he said.
The DREA Act has failed to win passage in Congress since it was first introduced 10 years ago. Now tie is running out for passage this year, and opposition Republicans have threatened to block it. Goes hopes that won't happen. He wants to finish school and eventually becoe a US citizen.
