The bill will also contain language repealing Don't Ask Don't Tell. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Dream Act offers a path to citizenship for young, undocumented people in the country if they serve in uniform. It is anticipated that Republicans such as John McCain will argue against the amendments. On-the-other hand, Rep. Luis Gutierrez is heading to Nevada on October 15th through 17th to campaign for Reid. &lt;/p&gt;</content>
