NOTES
Title from title frames
October, 2003: High school students stage a mock graduation ceremony on the Capitol lawn. Next day, the DREAM Act gets a chance. Because it's a small bipartisan bill to help kids, supporters are optimistic. But anti-immigrant groups see it as "amnesty for illegals." The Senate Judiciary Committee markup is heated and long. Finally an amended version is recommended for full Senate debate - but what exactly did Senators agree on in the confusion of the markup? The bill's final language must still be defined by opposing staffers. Will they negotiate a deal before the clock runs out? *Filmed in Washington, D.C. and Chicago*
