Dear R.,

Education is the single most effective tool we have for creating jobs, expanding opportunity, and making our children winners in a changing global economy. That's why over these past five years -- even as we've cut record State spending -- we've invested to make college more affordable for more families.

And that's why last spring I signed the DREAM Act.

The DREAM Act says that students can be eligible for in-state tuition, regardless of their parents' immigration status, provided they pay state taxes, graduate from a Maryland high school, and commit to legalizing their status as soon as they are eligible.

This issue is about fairness and basic human dignity for all. It says that students who pay state income taxes - and only students who pay these taxes - are eligible to pay in-state tuition.

As you may have heard, Maryland voters will be asked to vote on the DREAM Act on November's ballot. If given all the facts, I believe that Marylanders will vote to support the DREAM Act to provide more opportunities to our kids.

However, opponents of this measure are determined to defeat it, and have shown a willingness to spread misinformation. I hope I can count on your support, so that we will have the resources to give Marylanders the facts.

We are a stronger State when we expand opportunity to greater number of our people, rather than fewer. Greater educational opportunity and better jobs means a stronger economy.

Sincerely,


Martin O'Malley


P.S. The future success of our children is of the utmost importance to me, and I know it is to you as well. I hope that you will join me in this fight to defend access to a fair and equitable education for all, by considering a contribution today to Educating Maryland Kids.
