CLINIC Offers Dream Act Assistance

Dear Friends:

Here are a couple of more links that I hope will assist you in keeping up on the changing legal climate regarding the "Dream Act."  I'm now including a link to CLINIC, the Catholic Legal Immigration Network which is one of the ministries of the United States Conference ofCatholic Bishops.  My colleague in Seattle, Bishop Eusebio Elizondo, is a member of this board.  You might want to make sure this information gets forwarded to any parish leadership or volunteers assisting the undocumented. http://cliniclegal.org/
