Rutgers student assembly endorses the DREAM act

November 14, 2017

During last Thursday’s full-body meeting, RUSA took a definitive step toward their goal to support undocumented students by passing legislation entitled “Resolution to Endorse The DREAM Act and Call for the Extension of the Temporary Protected Status Program.”

“As an assembly, it’s important that we continue to show support for every individual that’s a part of our Rutgers community, regardless of citizenship status,” said Evan Covello, RUSA president and an Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy senior.
