Go to the story and scroll down a few graphs and click that image. Then click any of the colored boxes. Totally rad, right? (I'm right). Added: March 10, 2010 at 6:59PM EST

David said: Congress should pass a bill that would give good students who were brought into this country illegally as children by their parents a better chance for success as citizens.
Under the Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors Act, a path to citizenship would be provided to these children after they graduate from high school and enroll in college or the military for two years, steps that would help them become productive members of society.
Critics argue such action condones or encourages illegal immigration, but that's a narrow-minded view of a much bigger problem. There are at least 12 million illegal immigrants who live and work in the United States. Since most are not returning to their homelands, this country must find a good way to move them to permanent-residency status. Quote:
