UPDATE: DREAM Act defeated with not enough support 55Y-41N. Russ has the roll call. Looks like some of the Dems are starting to see the light, or at least want to save their skins.
Swiped in full from Russ’s place:
Culled from Hotair. I include all regional home office numbers as well. Can’t say whether anyone will pick up the phone on Saturday, but if they’ve got 300 messages Monday morning we’ll have done our job:

The hastag is #DREAM to follow the conversation.Here’s C-Span’s link if you want to watch online.From Kaus’ piece linked by Allah:You’ve heard of “comprehensive†reform? DREAM is non-comprehensive reform. It doesn’t even have the basic enforcement provisions—employer sanctions and fancy new ID cards—that were part of the earlier, failed “comprehensive†bargain, which wasn’t a very good bargain (in part because nobody was sure the enforcement schemes wouldn’t be immediately undermined by lawsuits from the same organizations who supported “comprehensive†reform). DREAM is all amnesty, no prevention. Maybe that’s because its backers care about amnesty but not prevention.This is a disaster of epic proportions just waiting to explode.We beat back the Omnibus. Let’s beat back this nightmare.Russ
